Tohatsu 50hp TLDI Starting problems.

[dan sheard]

Hi People,
I own a 2006 Tohatsu 50hp tldi that doesnt like starting when hot.
(turns over but doesnt fire) Have had it to the tohatsu dealer at slacks creek where they charged me hundreds of dollars to "fix" the problem, but the problem is still there. They also told me that the battery in it was the wrong type so I replaced that as well (another few hundred)But the problem is still there.Just wondering if anybody has this type for outboard and has had this problem??????
Cheers Dan

If you can't get help there, call Jon Eadie, he's a Tohatsu expert serviced my TLDI 90 for the 4 years that I had it on m last boat. He now has a shop at Cleveland trading as Bayside Suzuki Marine. His offs purer Scotty is also very good.

Cheers
