Bad and Good!
How bad do pulls starts suck (just my opinion...) but how cool is it when that engine fires for the first time and you begin to understand the personality it has. Just thought I'd share. My Matrix buggy is on its road to recovery!!! Booya!

RE: Bad and Good!
Glad its running.
Although I have to disagree on the pullstart. I love em.
I just find that the rotostart/drill/bumpbox is just an extra thing to have to worry about. Do I have it, is it charged etc.
Provided that your tuning is good, glow plug is good, ignitor is good, and engine is broken in properly, you should never have to give it more than a few pulls. 1-2 if you have an inline primer.
Just my 2c

RE: Bad and Good!
i agree with you dustin7837, i like just having the glow igniter in my pocket and not carry around all that extra stuff. i have only had a pullstart fail on me once in 5 years.
