I am having a problem with starting my Rotax 912 UL engine. A full battery is not turning the starter, but if I remove the starter and charge it directly from a battery, it turns. I removed the spark plugs and started again, and the engine is turning very slowly and then slowing down. I thought the problem was with the regulator and after testing it, it showed no charging. But that should not affect the starting ???? I replace the Ducati rectifier/regulator with a Schicke GR 6 regulator. The engine has a high compression and everything is turning normally when turned by hand. Do you have any suggestions to this problem? Thank you in advance. Johann G.
