Hi Andy
Apart from minor hiccups in starting during past cold winters nothing to this extent.At a loss as to what trouble may be in not starting at all now

Default Gems starting issues.

Gem's tend to have issues with starting and idling. Best person to talk 2 or check/ tweek the map is steve simpson. What he doesn'nt know about gems aint worth knowing! Pm me if you want his number. Tim.
