After you do it a few hundred times it becomes instinct. LOL

God, pull-start rewinds have to be the most trying and nerve-racking jobs ever. I hate doing that!

i don't evny your trouble at all. I had a 185s that we gave up on for a while. We took off the pull start and used a drill to start it. In the woods we would either pull start it or bump start it. We finally gave in and figured it out and lots of anger later....we figured it out.
Anyway, stay practiced at it because you will do it again.
As long as the spring stays put it ain't bad.

Had to do it one time on my ytm-200e. Wish it was the last time. It was a couple of years ago and I didn't know how a recoil was working. Trust me, after half a hour you know that the spring should stay in the groove.

I have to rewind mine on my honda 200... God i am not looking forword to that lol
Its not bad at all once you figure out the right way to do it and practice a litte. Including winding the spring, I'm guessing I could have mine together within 15 minutes on my 200s. What part are you guys having all the trouble with?

Yeah everytime I was holding it coiled up my nerves were high just waiting for it to shoot off somewhere. Next time i'm wearing saftey glasses.
If first you hook the outside of the spring into the housing, then you just work around and around with the spring until its all in.
