I posted on the diygokart forums here: http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/showthread.php?t=40716
I have a 212 with no governor which requires a lot of pulling force to start, while also every once in a while will fire and engage the recoil starter and pull it back with a lot of force, and I am all the while holding on to it tightly and pulling in the opposite direction trying to start it. (ow.) I don't have a lot of knowledge on engines and turn the forums for help. Could it be something with the timing or compression relase? I just would like to be able to start it sitting in the seat without tearing something in my arm. appreciate any help
