Start Up Blues...
Having 600 trouble free miles since the install of the ZZ454, the last two mornings at cold start 80* turning over the engine has started with a large clank, kinda like a hammer smacking a pan. On the second try to start it does so normally. What's going on? any thoughts? Or do i just grab a bigger towel to wipe up my tears?

Re: Start Up Blues...
Does it sound like its coming from the top of the motor or the bottom?

Re: Start Up Blues...
check to be sure your starter is tight

Re: Start Up Blues...
Sounds like it's coming form the bowls of the motor? Hoping to agree with you'all, starter issue, hopefully...
