texley Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Hi I'm struggling to work out how the return spring fits in relation to the kick start shaft. Anyone offer any advice or even better photos please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagecota Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) It's a bit of a fiddle. The hooked end of the spring hooks onto the back side of the kick lever and then you push the straight end into the hole in the case as you place the lever on the splines. The orientation of the lever is important, if you lay it too far forward ie. where the straight part of the spring lines right up with the hole, you'll punch a hole through the case at the bottom of your stroke. Here's a photo of the correct orientation. Edited July 15, 2010 by vintageCota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
