Not sure if the 3gms are the same as the 2gms, but there is a fuse that
sits near the back of the engine.
The housing of mine had cracked and caused intermittent connections. I
replaced it with a wireing to
a circuit breaker on my 12 volt panel and the appropriate sized
breaker. Just another place to look.

I have had the same problem on my Yanmar 3gm30 for years. Exactly as
you describe. Since it would start on the second try all the time it
was no problem. One time it wouldn't start at all for 10 minutes and
caused me to find the source. Tightened the battery cables and no
problems for a year. Starting to happen again and will try the cables
again.
