[QUOTE="Basstrackertx17, post: 495722, member: 21011"] When I bought my boat 28 years ago I decided to explore the emergency rope start scenario. I thought I was going break the rope or the handle. Starting snowmobiles, big generators etc was a cake walk. Took me a while to figure out how to actually roll it over without having my male parts laying on the deck. The trick for mine was a little shot of starting fluid in each carb. Warm or cold. I’ve been lucky and carrying a set of jumper cables to steal power from my trolling battery has avoided my journey back in time. Starting a Mercury 40HP 4cyl with a rope is a accomplishment for your ego.. LOL Sometimes, like others have said, enjoying your time on the water should not have to be a chore. Be smart, be happy. You know it’s time. Electric start for the win… Weather it’s a refit, or a new motor. I wish you well. [/QUOTE]
