Zenoah pull-starter protector

The pull-start housings on Zenoah and other similar gasoline engines have intake vents that feed air to the internal cooling fan. Unfortunately, these vents can suck in small objects such as rocks and leaves that may clog the intake, or worse, damage the pull-start mechanism and cooling fan. The best solution is to apply mesh window screen (available at most hardware stores) to the inside of the pull-start housing to prevent objects from entering. Use Pacers’ Zap-a-Dap-a-Goo to glue the screen in place.Michael Lawlor
