Rc Modelz - great service !

I ordered a pullstart yesterday about 3 or 4pm, after breaking mine. And Ive just been shocked when its arrived just now, the next morning, all the way to Glasgow.

Excellent service RcModelz well done :cup-1:

Nice to hear when suppliers perform well!
If your pull start breaks again it will usually be the plastic ratchet (or pawl in US) that turns the engine over when you pull the cord. You can buy a metal ratchet to replace this without buying the full unit and it will solve future problems.

It was the spring going out of shape and not fitting into the little groove properly. After a couple of hours of fiddling I binned it lol

The KM pullstarts actually come with the metal ratchet so Ive got that already. I think they are really good for £20 actually.

I just checked the spacing of the magneto and it was too close to the flywheel, touching a little, so I spaced it back properly. Hopefully this will make it easier to turn over and give the pullstart an easier time.
