I'm new to this forum but have a few question. I can't find any info on this motor. The model number is 501 with a serial number of of 4700. I can't find any thing on this. I want to change the recoil rope before it breaks, do I have to take anything off before I pull the recoil assy off, looks real tight. What should points be gapped at and should compression ratio be around the 120 mark? Thanks guys for and all help. This motor is going to my brother-in-law that has some medical issues right now and I want to get it running perfect for him.
