305 cc kick starter question
Hello, anyone know how to put tension on the kick starter spring when I reasemable the rightside engine cover.  There doesn't seem to be enough tension when I simply push it on.  Any help.  Sincerely, CFL      Machine, 305 CL77 1965

Re: 305 cc kick starter question
Load the spring by rotating the lever counter-clockwise until it's at the 11 o'clock position and then slide it onto the kickstart shaft.
