A 3/4" socket, I'm sure there must be a metric size that fits, chucked up to my DeWalt cordless drill makes an effective electric starter for a Champion 3500/4000, when your rope start break. Remove the recoil starter, Set the drill to turn to the right put the socket on the flywheel nut and pill the trigger. As soon as the engine fires, quickly pull the socket off.
If these engines don't start in 3-4 pulls, something is wrong. I couldn't believe my carb was all gummed up because I used Stabil and started the generator occasionally. After I broke the start rope, I investigated and found green slime in the carb. I replaced it with another one that I had after cleaning it proved ineffective and it started right up. Also, the last time that I ran it, it was surging at idle so I knew something was up.
