She cranks just fine now, no hesitation.
This was the first thing to try in the thread you posted santa and it was the problem:
"Sitting next to the starter are two molded connectors. The larger one has two larger pins in it. Spread the pins back apart. There is a similar connector about a foot off of the panel. Do the same there.
This is a normal problem with the older Yanmar panels and
harnesses."
Thank you for your time!
