Default RE: pull start ok?

To me, pull start is the last thing you want on a buggy or any motor. Its just another thing to cause an airleak. Ive had the problem to many times. I would think i have a cut in the fuel line(which was making it lean out real bad) but in fact it was the pull start. On almost every motor I have a back plate and I had to break down and buy a good starter box, prefably a ofna starter box. Plus on a pull start you have stupid 1 way bearings which can cost a alot , all the money you spend on 1 way bearings you cad have bought a starter box and be done with it.

Just take my advice, go with a sarter box, and rid of that pull start.

As far as electric start, way to heavy.. slowin ya down and also a possible air leak[:'(]
