Just finished the 20 hour service on my new BF 15 and noticed some dust or fuss on the engine seems it is comeing from my frayed starter rope. Is it a pain replacing the starter rope...also could this fuss go throught the carb and cause a problem......if not I will run this starter rope a while longer.

I have not had to replace a starter rope on one of these units.In general recoil starters on outboards are the bane of techs .You will be winding a razor sharp spring into a cup that you ca'nt imagine it will fit in,then line up the tags and cogs,then sort out the rope.Find out ,why the fuzz and deal with it before you get to that point.
