pullstarter on 3.3

[Agitator]

hey guys question.. on the 3.3 i got a pullstarter on it, do i still need to put the ignitor on the glow plug? how many cranks does it normally take? i put a hair dryer on it for bout 2 mins and i pulled the string bout 10 times but it wouldnt turn over..

[redck1979]

yes you need to use the glow igniter while pulling on the pull start...depending on how good your tune is it should defiantly start up within 10 pulls...

i prob should reset all the settings back to factory.. first time ive used the engine, bought it from somone on here

[Jato25n33]

It wont start because the tune is way off. If your motor has a good tune, a pull start should start a motor in less than 5 pulls. All of my motors start in 5 or less pulls.

[I know pi!]

when its tuned good it'll start up easy, it will help to prime it but when it locks up and gets really hard remove the glow plug and de-flood it

[Agitator]

well how do you prime it? just stick your finger over the exhaust?

[I know pi!]

remove the return line from the exhaust pipe and blow in it, it pushes fuel into the carb, anything else doesnt work good with the pullstart.

k im gonna go try it right now

ok i resetted everything to the factory settings, it took about 12 pulls so it runs good, i just have to get my dx 2.0 to turn the wheels right now.. i turn left it turns right and visa versa

if it is warm it will start in 1 to 3 pulls, when it is cold, whell that is different, it takes a wile but with a good tune you should get it in less than a minute. I have a dynamite "c" size igniter.

[I know pi!]

I have the dynamite D-cell battery (not rechargable) and it worksa good, I ditched the rechargable becaise it was a 1300 mah battery and the plastic meter broke on the top, so its $15 more for a weaker case and worse battery. glad you got your jato running I should play with mine tommorow.

I had a rechargeable one but it didn't work right so I got a non-rechargable one, the batterys don't need to be changed that much.

lol yea, but I didn't choose, my dad went and I told him to get the cheepest one they had and it was this one and it works good.

you got a link for that battery?

Whell for the non rechargable ones you just go to wal mart or costco (my favorite, they are cheep) and just get a size "c" or a size "d" battery. The rechargable ones should come with a battery if not your lhs will have them propbilly.

lol well speed they say when you getting the cheapest one you get what you pay for lol..... i got a 1600 batter for my jato and its a charm....
