it's not hard, just pull the motor, take the screws that hold the rotostart, remove it and put the pull start on.

If you have the manual, required tools, and common sense, then it will be a breeze.

With out an overpull . . . the HPI pull start I just bought and installed . . . failed after about 5 pulls.

I didn't overpull . . . the glue that simply held the string in place inside the coil box . . . let loose and the string came out.

I put my roto back on.

Haha I've had that happen to me before... The worst thing about pullstarts is re-winding the springs when they fail. Its possibly one of the most frustrating processes I've gone through in this hobby my first 2-3 times doing it... Expect to have a spare half hour to hour the first time with blistered fingers.
