Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

Well i got my 4 things from cler yesterday with his amazingly fast shipping =D. I'm very satisfied with everything but I had a slight problem that arose. I went and opened my new OEM Pull start from redcat and i guess on accident i pull it a little bit and everything decided to pop out. the plastic middle piece and the wiring and crap and the string is un raveled too and i have no idea how too put it back together like it came out of the package! Anyone know ?

sh.28 right?

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

correct

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

i kinda got how its supposed to go in but this is a pain in the ass and i cant get the long metal piece thats like a spring to go back in =( i shoulda never pulled the damn thing

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

took mine apart to see how it works..got an idea how to do it but I need to run to the shop and get some really thin wire to wire tie the coil so it doesnt unraveal

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

bro, its not easy to rewind the spring, you should never pull on a plull start when its not on, the string holder will pop out and you will have a mess. i will see if i can drum up some pictures for you, i remember a site that had pictures of the pullstart rebuild

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

yeah lol idk exactly how that would work but its a pain in the ass and the damn thing keeps getting soo close

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

oo and thanks Eddie yeah i have no idea when i pulled on it, i didnt intentionally do it I think it grabbed onto something and it happend. But i keep getting closer to getting it into place but like firebird said it just isnt staying tight enough for me too push it down into place.

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

get ya some thin wire...wire tie it..put it down in...snip wires and remove..hard part then is to line up spool with the coil...mines back together

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)

black tape will work too...slid it off with a pick...just make sure you wynd ur string on the spool the right way..lol

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

yeah idk the tape isnt holding how much did you use i tried what the gfuide said but its diff since its deeper..

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

I just wrapped it a couple times...more on the side the hook isnt on..put it in the housing and put the hook in its place and slid it off with a pick

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

you must be god then lol idk or im just retarded its a pain in teh ass lol

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

lol...far from god..im sure theres a proper way..I do however think I messed up the spring from winding the spool the wrong ways and try pulling on the cord..I use a roto start so I just had my pullstart handy

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

yeah I think i may have to order a new pull start along with the rotostart plate =/

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

I ike the roto start..wouldnt wanna go back to pull cords unless they are easyier on the engine

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

yeah. e starts are not a pain in the neck as much pull starts. like the other day i sliced my finger trying to pull start.

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

i put in my roto start today and dont like it. i couldnt get the engine to start. So i just put the pull start back on and it started with 1 pull.

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

yeah i like th pull starts a little bit better

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

What was you using to start it with ? the roto start. a cordless drill or a roto start drill ?

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
 

The roto start drill.

RE: Pullstart problem-Un raveled-help =)
