    Maybe have the stealership flash the ecu for altitude?? Stealership advised me of this when I took it in for a TSB..

    I got mt 5.7 flashed for higher altitude in Reno, NV purchased mine in LA... Didn't have starting issues, but may be an air/fuel ratio issue... Assuming no electrical damage has been done...

    300 hectares on single tank of kerosene
    Is it lugging down or chopping out when you are able to get it started?
