Since last Thursday (5 days ago) my 200’s engine dies immediately after it initially fires up (like when you disconnect the battery and reconnect and start the first time) on a cold staty (as in sitting off over night). It takes 2 to 4 start attempts before it will keep running. After it’s warm it restarts normally and runs fine.
My thought is that it may be a battery connection issue so I popped off the terminal connections and cleaned them with a terminal brush and reconnected the battery. I will see what happens in the morning.
Also the battery tests “good” with SOH in the 90’s.
I should also mention that I had a little incident last Friday with a tree that hit my SS tube snorkel which in turn tweaked my air box (broke one of the mounts). Could the MAF be causing this? It looks OK. I’m pretty sure the symptoms started before I hit the tree.
Any ideas other than battery connection?
