when the batteries are in good conditions the magntic switch should pull a gearwheel into the flywheel and let the starter turn it. If you hear just a "klick" the magnetic switch stucks. Try to kick it with a hammer a little bit. Perhaps it gets loose. If not you have to take out the...
Hi everybody...
I wonder why you all have problems to find the filters for the goat!?
