I just bought my trike from a shop 6 hours from me. When they dropped it off, it wouldn't start. The guy said the battery was probably cold. Since they dropped it off, I've ridden it 5 or 6 times. Now comes the problem. Every time I want to ride, I have to take the cover off the starter and push on the plunger, then put the cover back on, and the trike will start. The guy from the place that I bought it from said to cut the spring a 1/4 " to try and fix the problem. Can anyone else give me any other suggestions why the starter won't engage when I want to start it. Since I haven't ridden in 33 years, I'm a little apprehensive about cutting the spring.
