Qsc 500 quits after releasing start button.

[john]

Starting a new thread as the saga continues. Original problem was engine wouldn’t start. Lift pump was not coming on so replaced lift pump. Also serviced aftercooler as it has to be removed for access. Replaced starter solenoid also as it was broken off the mount.  Initial startup after all maintenance it started after a few tries. What happens is when you release the start switch it does. Sometimes it doesn’t but always stumbles. Pushing the throttles foreword and holding the start button until it keeps running is the best results to get it runnning. Once running it runs perfect. No faults on the smart craft. Feels like a relay is not latching. Glendinning controls. Any ideas. Thanks in advance

I don’t really know how to tie it to it but I can copy and paste this to the previous post.

John, 

Tie this post in with your last applicable posts.. Makes it so much easier to see where we were, where we are now,  and then where we need to go..

Plus–I want good pics of the engine,  and especially ones the the entire starter area on the engine..

Do you know how your DC POWER distribution is wired?
