Default Pull Start

I've had my Volcano SV for 1 day. On the third run, I went to start it, but all 4 screws that hold the Pull Start on were missing. Has anyone had this happen to them?
Also, has anyone replaced this before? Do you happen to know the steps? I don't know if I have to take the engine out or not.
Any help would be appreciated.

Its much easier to take out the engine. Its tough to get to the bottom screws if you dont.

And when you do put the new screws, use some locktite to prevent them from falling out again, actually you should take all the screws that attach to metal & loctite them before you run again or you will loose many others

Anyone know the part number for these screws. Also, the coil is unwinding inside the Pull Start. Do you recommend replacing the whole pull start?
Thnx!

Nah mate just buy some screws at your local hobby store. I dont think there is anything unusual about the screws and they should be fairly generic. With your P/S, it sounds like the spring has busted. You might be about get parts for it but it may pay to replace the p/s assembly as a whole.
