Okay i got a new 3.3 traxxas motor for my revo. i found the pull start assembly but i need the the peice that connects the pull start to the crankshaft. Where can i find that? I looked on amain, maybe i missed it?
You may need to buy a new crank. It should have a pin that the rod connects to and then it should poke out a bit more. I'll jump on the Pc soon and get some pics and stuff up. I'll try find all your part numbers you'll need too
The crank without the pin for the starter shaft is for a bump start engine. It uses a solid backplate and the engine is started by turning the flywheel with the starter box.
If you want to use a pull start/ez start or roto start you will need the crank with the pin the starter shaft and the new backplate.
That means u have to carry a big box nearly the size of the car itself. It may be cheaper going pull start still... The bump start requires a battery similar to the ez start and yeh it that's flat ur day is over
Bump boxes are mostly used by racers only. Whos engines usually stay running the entire race without worry of stalling and having to carry the box far to restart the rigs.
