Default RE: Engine Running in Reverse

Keep it civil, Kmyers. As TimBle said, he's new at this, just like you were one time.


For bjfrankl, running backwards means that the engine is running clockwise (from the front) where it normaly would run counter-clockwise (again, looking at it from the front). My OS 75 and all three of my OS 1.20's will start up running backwards if I am not careful with how I start them. But, as TimBle said in a previous post, a little twitching of the throttle stick usually gets them running in the right direction, as they will sort of back-fire then get turning in the right direction after a few tries.
