a while back i thought this motor had locked up on me, i have other motors so it sat for a while, just looked into it and found that the recoil bolt had loosened and siezed with the mainshaft bolt witch stripped when i removed it,yes it was tight to remove and ruined the threads of the nut, so i had to dress the top of the mainshaft with a grinder and the threads on mainshaft are ok, so now iam working on recoil, fixing bolt and had to take apart to reset recoil spring, i need some info on how to properly assemble the recoil spring and rope assembly,any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks,JRD
