That and your one way bearing. Imagine only putting a igniter in your pocket and a fuel bottle in your hand;) No more cheezy start wand, no more weight on the truck and your belt, lower temps, cleaner looking truck ETC, ETC....

yea i have a brand new owb in my parts box. or i can just pull the one out that im using now and clean it up good. plus no more charging the battery for the ez-start wand. i have a glow plug ignitor. i believe its a red ofna one. it takes a c battery. but i would like to get a rechargeable ignitor if i went with the pull start. maybe one of them with the meter on it? i mean real soon here im tearing the truck down to put all the new parts i bought on. so that would be the time i would do it. we'll see ;)

ok, so i just found a guy selling the traxxas pull starter on ebay for a good price. i bought it at $11.78 shipped brand new. if i decide to put it on, i will have a used but works great ez start, the ez start wand with a 1500mah battery pack, the used and a brand new ez start wiring harness plus a brand new ez start never used. and i have the integy blue aluminum ez start plate all for sale :nod:

well i just won this-

i think i got a good deal. it was $17.10 shipped nip. i looked around and this goes for over $30.00 with shipping. if i decide to go with the pull start, i will use this ignitor instead of the ofna with a c battery. that way i can recharge it and it tells me if my glow plug is good.

Bolt the sucker on there:nod:

One pop of the pull and she will fire if it's primed, glow igniter is charged and the plug is good. Almost forgot, tune has to be good too:lol:
