Mini Bike Pull Cord Stuck? Easy Fix Here!

[@sur.bet00]

any tips i did this and it locked the engine wont even pull basically back to square one after i put the mmo in?

[@momohunter72]

@sur.bet00 it’s an oil so it shouldn’t have locked anything up. Is it by chance extremely cold where your at?

[@sur.bet00]

@ no the bike is inside it would pull but would pull back hard went and got the mmo today put it in would pull at all lol spun the pull wheel backwards and it will pull but splashes the oil from the exhaust

[@sur.bet00]

wouldn’t pull*

[@momohunter72]

Mine did that before I tried this. It had a spot it would lock up at. I took the pull starter off and used a long screw driver to try and turn it. It would always lock up at the same spot. You might try letting it soak longer or trying tranny fluid. We had a tractor years ago with a stuck piston. Filled the cylinder for a week or two with tranny fluid and it worked perfect from then on

@@momohunter72 what tranny oil do you recommend?

[@hdfbrider32]

Did you drain any oil out of the motor before pouring in the mystery oil?

[@momohunter72]

No I just added it to the cylinder through the spark plug hole. The next time I ran it it did smoke for a few minutes

Thank you for the video! So, how much of oil did you actually poor? I am gonna try on my Coleman mini bike as I have same issue- stuck pull cord. You also mentioned Lucas product - what can be use from Lucas for the same purpose?

[@momohunter72]

I didn’t put a lot in. The fluid level in the bottle was even with the top tip of the label. I add Lucus and seafoam to my fuel and oil. They might do the same but I’m not sure, I have used transmission oil in a tractor with a stuck piston in the past. Filled the cylinder with tranny fluid and let it sit a week. It brought it back to life.

[@momohunter72]

@crazyturtle16 try doing it with transmission fluid and let it sit a few days. Suck out as much as you can before trying to start.

Worst case a replacement engine was $45 on Coleman’s website last time I looked
