When would you replace a pull start spring?

A recoil start (also called manual start, starter assembly, pull start or rewind start) is a method of starting an internal combustion engine. These are usually on small machines, such as cement mixers, brick saws, generators, compactors etc which use a Honda GX120, GX 140, GX160 or GX200 motor

Within the recoil starter assembly there is a spring and it’s job is to retract the pull start cord back into the casing. There are a number of things that can cause the recoil starter to fail.

– The tension spring can move out of position within the casing and just needs to be realigned.

– The tension spring can break.

– The casing holding the spring can break.

How to fix a pull start spring?

The simplest way to fix your recoil starter in all of these situations is to buy a complete starter recoil assembly and just replace the whole part. But if you are a bit more experienced, then you can take the starter recoil assembly apart and fix the spring. Just beware, they can be a bit tricky!
