If the shaft stripped the engine is probably fine, the shaft is softer than the input nut on the engine.
Not to sound like an AE fan boy or something but I like the Prostart....enough that I don't bother bringing my starter box with me, it's lighter and easier to use...
Thanks for the info. I got a hold of AE customer service today and they claim that the early batch of starter shafts were too soft on the end. They are sending me a new one, free of charge.
Are you sure about the pull start? I asked the cust service guy about that also and he said he wasn't aware of any pull starts that would work.
