Hi all does anyone know how to adjust the starter as mine is slipping on cool down ,it’s only done 2 hours so I don’t think it’s the rubber that’s worn out

I don't think it's worn after only two hours. I think it's just dirt or fuel on the o-ring. Do you have the same slipping on start up?

I don't think it's a slipping o-ring if it only appears on the cool down. Do you have a video to hear the sound of "slipping"?
