Chainsaw Recoil Starter Repair Kit 530071966

This is an OEM recoil starter repair kit for a gas chainsaw. This kit consists of a plastic pulley, hub, return spring, and two screws. If the saw is having trouble starting, replacing the recoil starter kit should fix the problem. The most common reason for installing this kit is to repair a worn starter hub. The teeth are susceptible to wear, in which case it can no longer catch the pawls on the flywheel to start the engine. This kit will also solve the problem of a damaged starter pulley. This kit is also used to retrofit a regular starter into one with a spring-assist feature. The spring-assist features makes pulling the starter rope much easier, as it counteracts some of the resistance of the engine compression. For this repair you will need a screwdriver, torx drivers, long-nosed pliers, and wire cutters.
