1985 110Hp Mercury outboard

[Kissdude]

Hello, I was wondering if someone could please tell me what adjustments I need for my little kicker motors pull start. It is about a 1985, 110 Hp and My issue is that when I pull the cord, sometimes it catches right away and turns flywheel but then other times, it pulls about 2 feet before catching. Mostly it doesn't catch till about 2 feet of cord being pulled out. Any info would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Yes, I believe that it is a 9.9 Hp but says 110 on the side. It's not a very big motor.

A 9.8 HP ( 1981? ) ----Remove recoil see how latches move.----Perhaps too much grease put on the mechanism.

Ok thanks and just wondering, do the latches need grease?

Check your serial number, the one you supplied does not pull up
