hello i just tried to start my ct5 and i found that the pull was alittle hard to pull but not really hard but a little tension on it. it was never like that. was it because i haven't used it in a while could that be the reason? i did put after run oil in it after useing it but haven't used it in while. i am just making sure there is nothign wrong with it .

Did you run it completely dry the last time it was ran? Have you fired it up? Did the tension go away after firing it up?

After it sitting for a while it is a good idea to put some after run oil in the chamber before starting it to lubricate to minimize the chance of dry start damage.

Hello i haven't even tried to start it. i wanted to see if there was anything wrong with it before i start it up and something breaks. so i will oput some after run oil in it and then it will loosen up. i will start it tomorrow afternoon.

started my ct5 up today and it ran great i guess it is all ok and miss the speed from it.
