Hard Engine Restart
Posted: Wed Sep 09, 2026 4:41 pm
My 2017 R3 with the Volvo Penta 300 HP engine starts fine when cold (initial start). But after the engine gets hot, and even after several hours of swimming, when I go to restart the engine the engine will crank for 30-45 seconds before starting. Has anyone else experienced this same symptom and found a cause/reaolution? Thank you in advance for any support.
