Will these pullstarts work?
Hey everyone, a while ago I had my pull starter on my CEN Talon NX3.0 (.18 engine) go bad. I was searching for pullstarts on ebay, and I was wondering, could any of these fit?

Could anyone help me with this? I'd just like to find out if they'll work before the auctions end, as you see the prices are incredibly low.
Thanks

To be honest the chances of any of those working without modification are very slim. You'll save yourself a lot of headache getting the correct pullstart for the engine.

Is there any chance that this roto-start: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-HPI-NITRO-MT...QQcmdZViewItem
could work on mine?
Wow, are starters for .18 engines uncommon or something? I can't find too many, but I'm pretty sure that I read that that roto-start would work with .12,.15, and .18 engines on another auction.
Thanks, sorry if any of my questions sound dumb. I'm sort of new to this stuff.

If your engine was a T-15 then i'd say without a doubt yes. But it's not. The chances of everything matching up are slim - unfortunately you can't just mix and match these things.
It seems most .18's these days are bump start. Can you not just find the correct pullstart for your engine?

Well basically, at first, I was looking for pull starts, then roto starts, now I'll look for a bump start.
Really, I'm just looking for an easy, but cheap (thanks to ebay) way to start my car's engine.
I found one pullstart on ebay that's made for .18 engines, and they want near $30 for it.
I'll look for a bump start now.
Thanks for the help.

LOL I searched up bump starts on ebay, got basically nothing. Then I went to horizon hobby andsearched for it there. Nothing came up. This is beginning to be ridiculous.
