Ok I have a 2009 40hp yamaha manual start 3cyl. Damn its hard to pull start, Im not that weak, at least I thought. When it does go the rope then flies and I stuff my wrist up. When I bought it off the dealer he made it look effortless, or at least knew some technique, and yes the engine was cold.
Is it true 40hp and up can be quite an effort to pull start?
Im told if you have good compression 40hp and up can be harder to pull than say an 8 or 15hp 2cyl?
Engine is so grunty once its going though, its like the difference low down between a 2cyl is huge, its kind of just sounds deep and powerful. Sure when I wot it gets noisey.
