@towhook I forgot about that.

@ford9572 It's ok for a starter to crank up to 30 seconds then it must cool down for 2 minutes before cranking again.

She's a runner!!!

Isn't it a bit excessive to run the starter for extended periods? I'm thinking it would probably be good to crank it over for 2 to 3 seconds and if it doesn't start up that time, Turn of the ignition, wait a few seconds and try again, Or are extended cranking periods normal for marine diesels like this?

Was this a Spring first start after sitting for the winter?

Na de winterstalling de boot vorige week te water gelaten en de MD7A start als vanouds met 1 draai van het contactslot.
30 jaar oud. LOL! Belachelijk lange start op dit filmpje!

i have a volvo penta diesel model 2002 does anyone know if my motor has glow plugs?
-
Sound good! indeed!
-
Wow. I have a MD7A and it cranks up within 4 or 5 revolutions, even after sitting all winter - 10 months - in Newfoundland. My good luck I guess.
no glow plugs on those engines i assume? or wasn't started in a while/both...

There are no glow plugs on these motors, so this is a pretty normal cold start. They do have a decompression lever and a hand crank, but it's a bit of work to start manually. Once they're warm, they'll start right up.
