Hello to all again
So having had the savage for a few weeks now..... had loads of fun with it!!
Went through the break in proceedure and all that, then onto the tune...
Oh my goodness, don't these things wheelie
Anyway, I hit aproblem with the roto stat drill type thing just spinning and then jamming up now and then, obviously not starting the engine.
This forum was my first port of call......... what a place!
After reading a few posts. Eveything was pointing to this One Way Bearing thing.
So off I goes with my tools and manages to get the back plate off the hex start thing at the back of the motor. At this point I was expecting to see this OWB that I have seen numerous pictures of.
To my surprise, it wasn't there??
What I have is this hex nut that slips onto what i think is the starter shaft? This hex nut is held in place by two small grub screws that meet with two flat sides on the starter shaft.
One of these grub screws had come out and was bouncing about behind the starter plate. This is what was causing the roto start to jam up. The hex nut was also just spinning on the shaft, when it wasn't jammed by the grub screw.
Am I right in thinking that my savage doesn't have a OWB? Or am I way off?
What would I need to convert my roto start to a roto start version 2?
Any advice would be great
Thanks
