GT550 Kick start issues
Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2019 1:04 pm
My 550 kicker occasionally doesn't engage and the kicker just blows through the stroke without turning the engine over.
It's been like this for awhile, so my laziness has led me to using the button to start.
However, the starter motor gear decided to disintegrate and now that I have the case off, I thought I'd fix the kick start as well.
Can't tell from my manual, does the entire kick start assembly come out in one piece?
Looks like a couple of bolts come out and the entire shaft comes out as an assembly.
Is that all there is to it?
Thanks in advance.
