50TLR with 704 Remote Better Start Procedure
My 2006 50 TLR with a 704 Remote has always been sort of difficult to start and keep running (initial start of the day). This engine has the “Prime Start” feature- no normal Choke.
What I discovered, if I turn the key to Start and then as soon as it fires use the Free Accelerator Button (push in on the throttle lever) I can raise the RPM , similar to a Fast Idle lever on other engine types.
After a few minutes of around 1500 or so, reduce the throttle to the normal idle position.
All of the above just prevents the start/stop, start/stop sequence to get it going.
Hope this helps someone.
