Finally, when the pull start does catch and rotates the engine, it seems to be a bit jerky, a bit difficult to pull start. It feels like the decompressor isn't on there and instead I'm trying to start with full compression. That said, I have experienced the same issue with not only the original decompressor, but a brand new replacement I put on there. Does anyone know why this may occur, other than the decompressor?
Hi Pau13z,
Is your blade carrier still fitted to the engine while trying to start the engine? Only because on my powertorque mower that I tried out last week it seems to start fine when I had the blade carrier and blades still fitted to the engine. When I removed the blade carrier I then tried to turn the engine over again with the starter and I had the same sort of symptoms as what you are mentioning above. It might be something else but this happened to me and I thought I would at least let you know.
Cheers!
