Due to the fact that I cannot pull the starter rope fast enough to start the engine (447), (health problem) I am in the market for an electric starter.
Does anyone have an electric starter for sale? Used or new.

Hi Stephen, Are you still flying that silly little Firefly/ Just Kidding. I discarded the standard pulley included in the kit and bought a larger one with ball bearings from West Marine. I also used a second one in place of the welded ring. I can now pull down instead of forward. I also bought some 6 mm climbing rope and increased the amount of rope by about 2 feet. It is now much easier to start and I can get that extra two cylinders to hit.
good to hear from you.
