My conencting rod in my force .26 engine melted and I sent it back to Ofna for repair. I got back the engine and now can't remember how to connect the shaft plate to the engine. I have the pin and spring and the plate, does anyone have pics or can walk me through this?
 
the Ofna Shaft Starter, really I just need to know what to do with the pin as far as connecting it to the connecting rod and then to the plate
 
Stick it in. It should botom out and snug itself. Once the plate for the rotostart assembly makes contact, it will have nowhere to go or make it's way out.
 
Hmmmm, didn't realize there was a spring. Take a look on the OFNA site. Maybe there's a picture of the assembly blown apart.
 
Checked didnt find any the first time before making this post :( From you recollection, I just stick the pin in the connecting rod hole and once I put the plate in it should fit in the angled groove on the plate right?
