Ok thanks. That did it (I raised the tank 1 inch; the needle is open two turns). Now, unfortunately, my battery is out of juice. How long should a new 12v 7A bat last powering a starter? I charged it for 14 hours last night, and got maybe 10 minutes of use with the starter. Is that typical?
No, a fully charged 12v 7a battery should last for weeks of normal use...Rog
