Re: {Chrysler 300} 300D hard starting

If the initial timing is set too far ahead it will act this way, especially hot. Put a light on it against spec and check that first.

Other things that cause this is a marginal battery that starts a cold engine but not a hot one. Presents as weak starter but isn't. Load test the battery to find out. I would check these things first.

It is an inherent evil of Hemi engine. Before and after engine re-build, cold start: the engine spins and fires maybe 1/10 of a second of cranking. Run it a few minutes, and-----click,grrr-rr--rr and a slow start results. Been that way for 50 years--on two 300 C's!!!

My engine cranks fine when cold but after driving it and turning off the engine even for just one minute or less the engine wont crank over or if it does it seems like the starter is struggling

After 15 or 20 minutes it seems fine again I think its heat sink

Has anybody else had this issue & how do you fix it ?

I have an original style starter

Thank You

Larry
