Wish I could help. But may I ask how did you manage to fit the supercharger to the belt system?

More info would help. What compression ratio, what pump size, what pulley ratio, what psi boost, do you have a bypass valve, what rpm are you obtaining, what fuel, what ign, what timing setting, what other variables can you add?

Problems cranking? Do you mean starter cranking?

if its like a kick back on start up, then ignition is too retarded. doesn't matter if its supercharged or n/a. remember at start up superchargers boost pressure is zip.

Not flat battery? Bad earth? sticky solenoid? what does the 'hard' start actually feel like?
