2008 230 twin engine Challenger problem.

[juice]

Hey everyone, 2008 Challenger 230 owner from South Louisiana. I have owned my challenger since 2009 with very little issues. I live on the water and use the boat 2-3 times a week. I recently encountered a problem while starting the engines. When I start engine #2 (Starboard) engine #1 dies (port). This happens 2-3 times before I can get both engines running. My first thought is battery? Anyone ever experience this before?

Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Brian

Get a load test on the battery. I think it will be ok though. I'm betting a poor connection on a moan wire or a bad ground or positive cable.

Thanks. I will check that when I get home today....
