Hi folks. I have a 1981 Cherokee Archer II. I like the plane, however, it gets frustrating with dealing with hard to start problems. Cold start it takes about 10 to 15 blades to start (using poh procedures) hot start is another issue altogether. again following poh procedures it will start after about 15-20 blades. No engine issues. New plugs, new harness. Older mags, about 800 hours, but haven't had any issues. Any thoughts? Brad.
