momin Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Its like a drill. youl have more problems with a pull starter. ie: blisters, sprngs flying out and cords snapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 exactly av heard to many bad things about the roto starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzi220 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I prefere pull over roto I thinks, I heard nothing but probs about the roto starts, I have a drill start to and don't even like that - too easy to flood the engine good move installing a pullstart. imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc007 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I prefer to use a pullstart myself due to me being fed up of carrying the roto start around and charging it, but IMO both are suitable methods of starting if done correctly. Don't be put off by people saying that pullstarts will give you blisters etc because if you can tune an engine this won't be a problem, problems only arise when something is wrong and you keep pulling the starter cord either too hard or with the engine flooded.
