Picco P7-R pull start
I bought a Picco P7-R and would like to add a pull start to it but I am new to this hobby and not sure what parts I need. I know I need the pull start assembly but I think I need the one way bearing too right?

RE: Picco P7-R pull start
I don't think you can add a pullstart to that engine. The crankshaft are to short and can not connect to the pullstart assembly.
Why would you do it? It takes power from the engine and is a pain to work with. It is much better to get a starterbox.

RE: Picco P7-R pull start
you can't put a pull start on that engine. the P7R is a racing engine and racers don't use pullstarts. heres the two things you can do, (1.) get a starter box. (2.) sell that engine and get one that has a pullstart.
I recommend gettinmg a starter box, because you will have a much better verity of engines with a starter box. heres the starter box http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/5429

RE: Picco P7-R pull start
you will be alot happier with a starter box, because once you set it up then all you do is put your car on there and push down and it starts, and with a starter box the engine will turn higher rpm's and have more power. (I thank with a non pull start engine you get an extra 1,000 - 2,000rpms out of the engine)
