Ryanhoopz Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hi all use to be a member years ago when Baja first came out, I managed to pick Up a genuine hpi Baja ss the other day for dirt cheap when viewing he talked about the pull cord wasn’t very good but this to me was a easy fix as it happened on my previous 5t the Main problem is when trying to start the Baja the cord will only turn over the engine maybe once the whole length of the cord it seems not to engage with the flywheel i stripped and cleaned the pull start but notice some wear on both the pull start and flywheel do I need to get a replacement flywheel or just a new pull start thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark35 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Just a new starter pawl should get you going, you could also file the flats on the flywheel too. Also that is a lightened flywheel you have there if you didn't already know 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryanhoopz Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Thanks for the replies have ordered a new part the guy didn’t know much about it selling it, so i keep unearthing hidden treasures when pulling it apart and servicing it 😊 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
