[Honda-C70] Re: why does my engine kick over part and then slip on the down swing

 

A while back I had similar problem.
It became worse. Kick stayed down and didnt come up.
Mechanic took off kick lever, dug deeper, changed one or two black rubber type disks with steps on side, changed lever itself and problem solved.
