Talked with @Teejay112 about it and he says the easy racheting pull start puts almost zero load on your arm when pulling the cord (wish it was that way when.......never mind) on his modded 45cc rov, which I'm sure has a decent amount of compression (likely not as much as mine but still) so it will probably have a little load on my arm when pulling, soooo I think I will probably be doing that, first let me check out the starter pawl situation.

You should be use to it by now!....

You have to time it just right with the stroke!.....

so it will probably have a little load on my arm when pulling,

Yeah, don't y put it at tdc then yank so it had momentum when it goes down and up? Something like that ?

Made me this air filter support bracket, since I have such a long di......I mean air filter setup, I don't want it flopping around and popping off the velocity stack, so it's to support my filter looks a bit crappy but will do. When I get aluminum or steel for whenever I make a basher bar, Ill re do it. That was just a bracket for something that I re purposed ? I also made a heat shield for the filter tube. Didn't want it heating up an possibly melting (unlikely but better he safe than sorry)

Love these little projects!!!

Hey z just gonna toss this out there for ya. I have a 90cc, 101cc and 128cc chainsaws. Non of them have compression releases on them. They pull over ok and don't hurt too bad if they kick back.( well just the big one really sucks to start)
