I have a 2.5 T-Maxx with the EZ start and I just got the new Picco .21 drop-in motor. The motor went in fairly well, although it is a tight fit. Plus, the one-way starter bearing was rubbing the back of the block. I had to modify the starter assembly for clearance.
The EZ Start automatically cuts off the starter motor power when I try to crank over the Picco .21. As most (if not all) of you know, the EZ Start has a built-in power cutoff that shuts off power to the starter motor if it detects a certain level of resistance during cranking. It's a good feature (for a newbie maybe) but I wish it wasn't there as it won't let me have enough power to crank the new, larger motor.
Does anyone know a way to bypass the power cutoff circuit in the starter assembly? I would like to simply get full battery power going to the starter when I push the damn button.
Oh, I ain't getting no pull-start, so don't nobody bust my chops about getting one. :boxing:
