[QUOTE="McRuss, post: 923794, member: 251"] I had this happen three times on my '04, each time after it had set for two weeks or more without starting. Found as others that just holding the starter button down until it starts to sputter and fart and finally runs. BUT....it just happened to my '09AE after it sat for two days! It has always been a quick starter but Tuesday morning, at 28 degrees (shouldn't be a factor, has started just fine in cold before) it went into Fast Starter Syndrome. Battery is only a year old and it held until it started. So now what? Length of time sitting was not a factor, must be something else involved here. And none of the suggested reasons apply to the '09AE. AHA! I went back and read the posts more closely. Someone mentioned starting and stopping without a warm up. I did that! I did the Trooper Mod on Saturday and started it up, then shut it off. That might have caused flooding. [/QUOTE]
