I have an issue with my sportster 1800 (twin 717s). I Can only seem to run one engine at a time. I checked my batteries before heading on on saturday (both were at about 12.45v - too low?). I start up port side no problem, but cant start up starboard. I cut port side so I can hear what is going on with starboard... starts up, and now nothing on port side. Spins and Spins but doesnt turn over completely. I am wondering if a) battery is not charged enough to spark and run both engines sufficiently.... and perhaps when giving throttle to start port side i overdid it and flooded. Any ideas or tips? Thanks!
