Engine won't start or Primus

[Steve Quandt]

If it is set up the same as my 1993 pull
down the drawer front under the kitchen sink, there should be a switch there
for the electric engine heater. For this to work you need to be plugged
in or on your generator. When you were parked did you tie the engine
batteries to the house so they would be charged? If not there is a switch
on the dash AUX Battery, if it is off turn to on to on to charge the engine
batteries.

The cold start switch goes to an ether
cylinder in the engine bay that is most likely empty.

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Engine
won't start or Primus

Hello,

I have a 1994 WB with an 8v92. I have been away for 4 months and just got back
this past weekend. I wanted to start the engine so I tried starting the Primus
in order to pre-warm the engine due to the cold temperature we've had for a few
months. The Primus would not start. I checked the Propane switch, and it was
on, the stove was working and so was the refrigerator. I tried to turn it on a
few times incase there was and air in the line, but it never started. It there
another safety switch for the Primus? I started the engine and the primus
before I left and all worked properly.

When I try to start the engine it turns very slowly and does not turn fast
enough to start.

The only thing that I noticed was the "Neutral" light on the
transmission panel is on.

Does the 1994 Bird have an electric heated for the engine? I saw a switch that
is on the right side of the consul that says cold start.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
