[QUOTE="Fudoshin, post: 314977, member: 8744"] I have a 1972 Mercury 20/HP tiller, I inherited it from my grandfather and it sat for the last two summers, at first it wouldn't start up, with some work, replacing a few wires I got it started and took it out on the lake yesterday. Once she is started it runs like a top, flys across the water, but it takes five minutes of pulling the cord to get it started. Not to mention the pull cord doesn't go all the way back in each time. Any suggestion on what I can do to not have a sore arm the next day after each use? [/QUOTE]
