Well, it has happend to me now. The three screws holding the roto start plate have come loose. I've lost 2 of the 3. So off to the lhs on Sat. Is it easier to pull the motor or the shock tower. 1st time in doing either so let me know what to expect. I know others have had this problem in the past, so give me a heads up.
 
I like to put some blue threadlock on.let it dry for 24 hours. I did it to my savage pullstart and it was set.. too bad the string broke.I ended up with the Rotostart plate. Still have all screws on that plate!
 
Oh I'm definitly gonna put thread lock on it this time. Do you know jon is it gonna be easier to pull the motor or drop the shock tower.

what do you mean? I can pull the motor out easy..after a million times setting the mesh on the dang thing. I also opted for the Nova towers as well as the Nova engine mount.MY Rcs cage is cool but dang it makes it hard to do small changes.
 
Well, being the first time in getting to the roto screws can I get all three screws without pulling the motor. Or take the shock tower off and go in that way. I know I can get two of them but the botton right corner is gonna be a dousie.
 
take it out. I remember wanting to throw the damn thing because of that!!
 
What am I looking at at cost for the pullstart and what kinda time to put pull start in.
 
Thanks dean, I would like to keep roto start for the time bein so I guess I'm pulling the motor this morning. Hey dean, did yu get my shirt out yet? lmk
