Hi there, i have a RC10GT2 RS with the standard .15 AE engine. this last weekend i tried to start her up but the pull start feels loose. You can feel that in the first pull the engine turns but the next pulls it feels as if the pullstart wont turn the engine anymore. new glow plug, batteries were fully loaded. any suggestions?? thx

sounds like your one way bearing needs either replaced or cleaned.it is right behind your pull start be careful when you pull the starter off so you dont undo the spring.clean it with automotive break cleaner and lube it with some very lite oil

ya dont let the spring come undone out of the pull start at all costs! mine came out and i was never able to get it back together. so be extra careful that the spring doesnt come out
