My B21 has an intermittent problem. When I crank it, it starts up. As soon as I release the starter, it stops. If I keep the starter engaged (have done this for about 2 seconds or so just to see what happens), the engine runs on it's own until I release the key from the start position (and it goes to the run position).
I've got the technical manual, and will hit it tomorrow but thought I'd ask in case someone has had this problem before. In particular, if anyone knows what sorts of problems can stop the engine (hi temperature, other problem) via some electrical means that's where I should 1st focus my attention.
I used it for 4 hours on Saturday, and today it would not start. When I had this before, I wiggled the oil pressure sensor and it was happy, but it seems that the oil pressure sensor can't cut out the engine so I think that was just random luck that it decided to run.
TIA
