[QUOTE="overboard, post: 498298, member: 6547"] Pappy posted the solution, I have an electric start 100 HP Mariner with a pull rope in a bag that came with it. I often wondered how hard that motor would be to start using that pull rope and I really don't want to find out, but it's there just in case! In order to use the rope start, I would need to remove the cowl, install the knot in the notch in the flywheel, wrap it around the flywheel a few turns, and turn the motor over manually. It's been a while, but somewhere along the line I have started an outboard using that method, as long as there are notches/cutouts in the flywheel, that's what they are there for. [/QUOTE]
