The qd 15 does not have that feature it is the same as the newer tens except it has the simplex starter and and the motor is spring silenced instead of rubber.The gears that mesh the twist grip handle to the motor are fine toothed they changed to a stronger ball type in .55. These motors with the skinny teeth should not have the twist grip turned when it is pointing up if there is wear on the teeth they will skip a tooth or strip the fine points of the end of the teeth.
A wonderful engine enjoy.
