So I have a 2 cylinder Kubota engine that I haven't really figured out how to start "quick." Right now its always 50+ degrees out. So here is what I do and where I am confused. What I do: turn key to glow for 10 seconds, set throttle somewhere, turn key to start and it cranks and cranks for a while, its puffing smoke the whole time and it often sounds like it wants to go but it doesn't, I keep holding key until it fires. I found out that every time it sounds like it wants to go that I should hit the glow plugs for like 10 more seconds and try again...this helps a great deal but it still doesn't start right up like a Cummins will without glowplugs or preheating in 20 degrees. So what am I doing wrong? Where should the throttle be set for starting? Yeah its older and leaks a little here and there but runs well once started and I am sure there are lots of things that could be done to fine tune it but I am just trying to refine my technique not so much spend time on working on the engine.
