Hi guys.im not real uppity up in the nitro world...but here is the situation,i am getting a Monster GT that has a Sirio .27 in it,it has a pull start,but there is so much pop it keeps breaking the rope...can anyone tell me a type of shaft starter for this? part number would be great too.
also rumor has it(i dont have the truck yet to see,or the starter part)that the tmaxx,or revo 3.3 EZ start bolts up to this engine..can anyone confirm or deny this?

Here's something that may help - unscrew the glowplug about 1/4turn, enough to release some of the compression, that'll take some stress off the pull start. Soon as it fires, use igniter to snug plug back down. Soon as igniter is removed use wrench to tighten glow plug all the way.

This is a common trick used to help high compression, tight engines - especially using a starter box.

If you are repairing the pull start rope, upgrade to the biggest diameter nylon rope you can run.

Good luck!

Do you have a heat gun? Maybe heating the engine prior to starting might loosen things up a little.
