Trouble shooting a new hard starting problem on my 4 cylinder O-235-C1.
Electrical, battery, starter all seem good.
Found one completely dead spark plug on the bottom #4 cylinder. It did not register at all on the ohm meter. All other plugs were within specs. (Tempest UREM37BY)
Can this, alone, cause hard starting?
It does start but after many attempts.
This is new problem not experienced in the 8 years since I installed her.
Before I put everything back together I'd like to know the answer to this question in case I should keep looking for additional issues.
TIA
