[QUOTE="Rx7man, post: 5601859, member: 125356"] can you turn it over at all, and it's just difficult? or does it not turn over with the plug installed. I'd try a compression check first. Also, it makes a HUGE difference to have a full spool of rope on the recoil (better leverage).. take the starter cover off and make sure it's right filled up... the 2100's I have were a BEAST to crank over with 180 PSI when I didn't have a full roll on the starter, when I replaced the rope they felt like a 60cc saw in comparison! (one of them had only about 20" of rope left, giving you about a 2" diameter spool instead of the 3.25" or so it should have) [/QUOTE]
