[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 466779, member: 3278"] [size=5]Remove the handle. You will not find a handle/cord "assembly". The rope has to be a specific length, no shorter. The rewind spool has to be wound a specific number of turns before the rope is added and the spool is allowed to retract. If you install a rope that is too short and the rope comes to the end before your arm does...parts break. I do not have those figures in front of me but you should be able to look them up. Hoping you are running that engine on a 16:1 fuel oil mixture. Certainly nothing less than 20:1 as that particular horsepower had a nasty tendency to lose #1 rod if run on a lean oil mix.
