Thanks for the reply, 90cummins - maybe I need to set up the system to crank for a set period with repeats as necessary - and only add a compression release solenoid if the auto-start sequence fails a few times. So far- the engine has started right up within a second or two. I just wondered if using the CR lever made it easier on the starter somehow. No hour meter on this 2006 (Izumi) genset - but looks like it has quite a few hours on the clock, judging from wear-and-tear, paint splatter, etc. Still, a good strong-running engine for the paltry amount I have invested...
