my roto start is not catching, is there something wrong with the one way bearing? please help me.....

thanks,
gus
 
your one way may be shot. remove the rotostart and spin the one way. If it grabs then I would check the rotostart backplate. If it spins both ways...get a new one way and switch to a pullstart and hone in on your tuning skills.
 
If you're using a drill. Be sure it has a clutch on it. Don't be like me, just plug up the 3/8 Makita and let her rip. Thought I was being careful. :doh: Guess that is why the one-way is so easy to tear up. If it didn't mess up, ya might bend a rod.

Order 2 if ya have to order it. Hell, order 4. I need 2 now. :jk:
