Anyone stumbled on a good source of cheap generators recently?? Killed the pull start on my cheap 2 stroke over the weekend.

Engine/running gear still faultless - just can't actually start it

Mark, yes if anyone has a pull start unit for the "std" 2 stroke genny, then i'm sure it would fit. I have it in bits currently - trouble is, what was once a recoil spring neatly wound under the bobbin - is now a long coil of flat spring steel!!!
