custom-vince Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 not sure there is enough compression on a top80 to make a flash starter work. I suppose you could fit a weaker spring to compensate. A bungee starter has the same effect. Fitting a bungee cord to the pull starter that is.

christian Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Vince is right. I have a Top80, a 12mm bungee doubled up works fine. If you search this forum you will find a link to a tutorial on exactly how to do it. It also makes the starter easier to reach for 'in-flight' re-starts.

Chilly Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yes, as others have said, bungee is best 8-12mm will be fine, I currently use 10mm on a Bulldog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cas_whitmore Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I'm guessing it's loop 6" or so attached to the starter handle . Cas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
