0200 starter ropes

[cory]

I'm having alot of trouble getting any longevity out of them. They last 1-2 months at most. Any ideas?

Is everything nice and smooth on the exit hole on the side cover? Is something nicking/abraiding it in some way?

Every click a different pic!

It also doesnt help if you crank on them all the way to the end of the cord everytime you pull the cord.............

If that thing is fraying off sometime before you get to the end of the stroke you most likely have something abraiding it .It could be a burr on the starter drum,a screw on the drum,rough rope guide bushing .

Not pulling to the end of stroke, and no rough spots but I'll have to take a super close look to verify the smoothness.

One theory I had was that making the rope too long was leaving the rope spooled to high or far out on the drum thus exposing it to wear from spinning parts.
