Sorry, not Sarge, but can't you just drill the rivets off, and replace them
with appropriate-sized bolts? =)

Yeah so simple right? Wtf would be their reasoning for that besides
quickness off the assembly line and no repair?

Not if I understand you correctly. Are you sure you are taking the whole
case off ?

No. I'm only trying to replace the recoil start rope.

Not sure but I think you are not taking the right cover off. The whole tin
that covers the flywheel - and then you replace the rope from the underside.
Probably held on by 4 bolts - 2 that are like head bolts and 2 on the lower
end that take a 7/16 wrench.

Hrmm..the dude at the local repair joint told me to drill out the rivets,
I'll have to take a closer look at the cover.
