Rotary carbs offer a larger response in the middle of the power band. This works well for off-road applications when throttle response must be varied. Slide Valve carbs provide greater response at the beginning and end of the power band. This works well for on-road and racing applications for fast take-offs and high speed.

No it does not, it starts in 1 or 2 pulls and it is very easy to pull. I feel that the electric start ones are not worth it unless you use it often. If you need this unit for emergency use only, most likely the battery will be dead when you need it unless you keep a trickle charge on it. Hope this helps.

With mine to first start it, turn it to full choak, and to a lower speed and pull once. Keep on lower speed but switch to half choak and pull, and it should start. May need to repeat a couple times.

Yes! I installed this starter about a month ago and every 7th or 8th start it doesn't kick the gear out. It just spins. It will work eventually, but I have to keep trying to start the truck over and over. Please let me know what you find out. Thanks.

This is a pull start. I do not know if they have an add-on kit. I will say that it starts on the first pull nearly every time but it does take a decent pull.

Not much at all. Mine starts on the second pull 95% of the time. I've never had a problem with mine.

No, it does not have a remote start. I might add that it does dependably pull start usually on the first or second pull though.

No it is not, but it starts at first or second pull every time (just push the gasoline priming pump a couple times first)

First, I have two of these engines and because they start soooo easily, never considered an electric start. Second, the starting mechanism (rope pull) is designed for a specific flywheel that I don't believe has an electric starting ring. To convert would be expensive!

No it didn't. Also the key start does not work very well on it either. It mostly has to be pull started. It does run well though.

The electric start on mine is powered by plugging in to 120 AC. It's a Animal, but I've been able to pull start it. Not hard to pull, I think the electric start is a good option in case it gets stubborn i.e. bad gas from long term storage. enjoy!

Bought one a few months ago and, no, it's not electric start.Starts easily, but the old fashion way. Pull the cord.

Yes. So far my pull start has worked with one pull. Two pulls if the motor is cold. I've seldom used the electric start so far.

No. This model is a pull start. I believe there is an electric start model, but I'm not sure. This model faithfully starts, even at -6 F, on the first pull. I would question the need for an electric starter unless there is a clear physical need. The pull effort could be handled by the average 11 year old.

No, this is a pull start but it is an easy pull and it starts with no more than two attempts.

This would probably work provided your starter doesn't draw more than 300amps peak, but this is a continuos duty solenoid not a starting solenoid.

Yes there is a button to push to start. There is a cord in case there is something wrong with the starter. FYI I have used the cord to start & it was very easy & fired up on first pull
