URGENT !!! (well it is to me ) ;)
does anyone have, or know where to get, a pull start for a 99cc Predator
(I think the 79's have the same one)
the spring broke on mine after 28,000 miles worth of pulling
now I am stuck walking the girls to school until I can find one

I took the recoil apart and the pin on the housing that the spring hooks on snapped off, so no repairing this one

I can start it by wrapping the rope around the cup, but it is right beside my calf
I usually rest my right leg against the pull start cover, so I am scared that I will turn my leg into mangled flesh (not good !!! LOL )

Bill,

Hopefully you can find a recoil stater for you engine. I know AGK advertises the part, but they always says "out of stock". In the event you can't find the part, just take the cup off and start the engine with a small cordless drill. Otherwise you might have to buy a 79cc for parts.

Frank :)

MotoMagz sent me the recoil he posted above :)
the cases are different (the new one has a different bolt pattern) :(
but,,,the guts are the same and swapped out perfectly !!!
turns out, it was a snapped spring, but I am pullstarting again :)

THANKS KEITH (MotoMagz) !!! (^)
