I got it started! It wasn't the one-way bearing, yes it did recoil the entire time. It had something to do with the mechanism inside that actuality engages the pull starter to the crank. After pulling it apart several times and cleaning it I finally figured out that when it would stop working...
Yeah, I actually already got it freed up. I almost got it started and I think the pull starter broke, all of a sudden no resistance at all. So the road back is going to be a bit bumpy.
Hey Everyone, I have an old HPI Savage Truck with the .21/3.5 BB engine. The bad news is that is was improperly stored years ago and the engine is now seized and it's a Discontinued one on top of that. So my question is can I remove the 3.5 and replace it with either the F4.6 or the K4.6...
