Any one have an easy start?

When you release the cord, the spring unwinds and spins the engine. Word was it worked pretty well. If that's what it is, it reminds me of a roto-tiller my dad had years ago. Had a crank that you wound up and folded it back on itself. That caused the engine to spin from the wound up spring. Gave him fits back then, maybe they've improved the technology in the last 30 years?
Some of the rotery push mowers started that way back then also.RobS said:I think it's a spring thing in the pull thing. A friends' wife described it to me a while back.
