Having trouble starting diesel Gator in my sig.
Problem 1:
When I get it to engage, it turns over and over and for the longest, won't hit. Like today, I was surprised that from the getgo, I got it to spin nicely for quite a few seconds, like 10-15 seconds, plenty long, and it never hit. What could cause this? It's winter now, colder. Would starting spray help this and if I use it, where do I spray it?
Problem 2:
It will not spin long enough. Sometimes it just clicks from the getgo and I can never get it to spin. Today, I was surprised, it spun a long time but after I never got it to hit, now, it just clicks. Tried to jump it with booster cables, it didn't help anything. Would this be solenoid or starter and can I tell? Just start replacing the cheapest first or what? Or, could it possibly be the battery? I replaced it I guess it was couple of years ago.
TIA!
