[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 41333, member: 55"] Not at all familiar with the mercs (I mess with [i]real[/i] motors), but what exactly did you do to restring it? Did you actually remove the starter from the block, and run fresh rope the same way the old was? One thing that commonly happens on the Johnnyrudes with the 12 foot springs inside the housing is when the rope breaks, it winds back up to fast. Letting the rope or spool freewheel will usually result in the spring breaking, and the loss of ability to rewind. [/QUOTE]
