60 forum posts 25 photos	Hello Jens Thank you for your comment, that I'm sorry to say, I just discovered now. I think you are right about the self starting issue, but I just give the shaft a little push, must think about this in my next design. Regards Mogens Edited By Mogens Kilde on 02/11/2010 15:39:49
