The "no crank" you experienced means insufficient voltage at the
starter innards. Its cause could be: discharged/bad battery [low
source voltage] or bad connections -- be they at the battery terminals,
the starter cables, the solenoid, or inside the starter.


One thing for sure David,


New battery, I am sure my A&P cleaned the battery connections and I am
pretty sure he would have inspected the connections so that will be ruling
out any further issues should I have any.


Then further troubleshooting is needed. Another poster suggested that
contactors may be the culprit. It's a good suspect.

(There are two basic approaches to troubleshooting. One is to
methodically go step by step, testing as you go...until you find
the anomaly. The other is jumping to a specific villain, and testing
it first.

An expert is the guy who knows how to balance these two. He may try
the second, and then go back to the first when stuck.)

Manowar do I agree with the second paragraph 'specially when it's
electrical in nature and intermittent.

I flew today, no problems whatsoever noted. Not so say a problem doesn't
exist, but engine ran smooth, started on one swing of the prop.

Couldn't even go to the practice area, but that wasn't a mechanical issue,
icing at 2000 feet was the problem.
