I have a 420 Predator that tries to rip the pullcord out of my hand when starting it. The plastic handle actually just broke from the kickback. After asking around it seems the valve lash is the only possible issue after ruling out the keyway being sheared. Here's my question:
Should I set the valve lash slightly after TDC (at the beginning of the ignition stroke)? I heard some people do this to ensure they aren't setting there lash on the compression release on the cam. Or should I try adjusting the intake valve when the exhaust is fully open and vice versa? That's what Vegas Carts reccomends anyway. Any tips?
