I started installing a pull start and centrifugal clutch on my Grubee tonight. The thingy that ataches to the crank shaft will not go all the way down before it bottoms on the 4 screws that bolt down the magneto. It won't go down far enough to even get the retainer nut started on the shaft. I got the starter from zoombicycles. I reviewed their installation instructions before I bought it, so I knew there might be some issues. I have a plan that I think will work, but just curious if anyone has done this, had the same problem and how they resolved it. My idea is to replace the 4 screws, that use a flat blade screw driver, and replace them with hex heads with a thin head if I can find such, torque them down and take a Dremmel tool and grind off what I need to get that thing to fit flat. I think if I grind the screws that are in there now, it might take to much metal away so that I won't be able to get the them out later. With hex heads that shouldn't be an issue.
Thanks for any thoughts or ideas !
