pull start keeps popping back
well, whenever i go to start my honda gx340, it keeps wanting to pop back and it snaps the rope, not to mention hurting the **** out of my hand. i took the belt off and tried to start it same deal. i got a brand new pull start assembly and it broke the rope first pull. im almost sure its something in the engine. it takes about 3 pulls and then when you pull it goes out about half way and POP!!!, the rope snaps back and breaks the rope. i think its a timing issue but im not sure. me and my arm would really appreaciate some help...
thanks |

Re: pull start keeps popping back
I had a briggs racing cart motor that would do the exact same thing. I had to bump it around until it got to the compression stroke before yanking the cord. Timing "could" be set for too much advance but I doubt it. I don't think there is a way to set the timing on those but I could be wrong.

Re: pull start keeps popping back
yeah i can get it on the compression stoke and pull and it still does it. i would just get a electric start but it might break the starter. tommorow im going to honda house but i really want to drive it today. hopefully ill figure this thing out.

Re: pull start keeps popping back
i just did some research and i think you can turn the ignition coil to adjust the timing but im not sure how to adjust it. theres a small engine repair place not to far from here, ill just take the cart down there tommorow if i dont have any luck...

Re: pull start keeps popping back
just alittle update, there was a pin in the flywheel way down in the engine, and the guy at the shop said he didnt know how it got bent, but it was the culprit.

Re: pull start keeps popping back
yeah it hurts like **** when it pops back, you if its strong enough to break a brand new pull rope like a peice of yarn, it will hurt

Re: pull start keeps popping back
Go electric, then no starter (rope or electric)
