Hey PPL. I Have Had Pull Starts And Roto Starts. Pull Starts Break And Roto Start Berrings Wear Out. Which Kind Of Starting System Is Better? Its For A Wasp 28. If You Can Find A Good p/s for it. post it. and if rotos are better ill buy it from ac. I'm just curious which is more realiabel cuz eiter way you have to fix em

wow heres a roto start for 9.99. does n e one know/or can tell if it comes with the one way barring? herza link http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXHPR8&P=7
 
Okay. Thanks. Well That Sucks. I New It Was TOO good To Be True
 
Yes, the s-25 pull-start should fit, but you might have to use the hpi one-way bearing. Basically, you'd use the same type of one-way that you use for the rotostart.
 
oh. so i need a s-25 one way barring gotcha. hey is this p/s pretty strong? does n e one know? My wasp one sucked. but my hyper one was really strong.

what about the tiger drive?? never had one but they look stronger then they rotos..
 
well how much are they? i may buy one. ill still prolly get a p/s tho

I've snapped the cord on my s-25 so many times I forgot how many so one day, I got real pissed off and went out and bought a rotostart...money well spent :D (for me at least...)
 
yea i hate snapping p/s'! so I'm gonna get a new roto start backplate/barring. thanks everyone!

A tigerdrive would be better when/if you choose later to do so. You can set the clutch on a drill so you don't ruin the one-way.
 
I have a roto start and I love it! I havnt had ANY problems with it once so ever. I would rather have that than a pullstart ANYDAY. All my experiances with pullstarts have been bad.. The only draw back behind a roto start is the battery dying and having to carry it. But to me its well worth it. Id go with the roto start. Ya can't go wrong.
 
Ya, I got the rotostart cause I kept breakin my pull-starters, one of the best things I've ever bought.

IMO, a pull-start just will not cut it for most big-block engines, but they are fine for small-block engines... So, you have to have either a rotostart or starter box for big-blocks when possible IMO.
 
Oh Well I Dont Even Need A Tiger Drive N E More I Got Another Roto Back Plate
