Easily Fix Your Pull Start Recoil Spring for Small Engine

Has your spring sprung? Is your rope stuck? The spring has come loose inside the housing. Check out my video tutorial on how to fix this very common problem. In this video, i'll show every detail on how to put this nuisance back together. This will work for chain saw, lawn mower, weed wacker, blower, etc...

Excellent advice. Thanks very much. This is by far the easiest method I have seen for the ordinary handyman without specialised spring-winding equipment. And, I've got to say, thank heavens for zip ties and cordless drills.

Thanks so much for explaining this process - after spending a couple of frustrating hours yesterday struggling with the spring, I was successfully able to get my whippersnipper working again this morning. Definitely takes perseverance, and I went through a few zip ties, but very worth while. Thanks for sharing the idea.

Thanks. Got it in the second try. Had to reduce the innermost spiral's diameter so it would catch and found that easier with everything flying free. Your style inspired confidence in this hack, and it was definitely easier than by hand.

I'm a novice at small engine repairs, but with videos like yours, I've finely figured out how to successfully repair my recoil spring and rope on my 24 yo Tecumseh tiller. I've spent 2 weeks trying to figure out which direction to install the spring, how to keep the spring inside while rewinding it. With your video I realized I didn't need the rope installed until after the spring was working (many hours trying to wrap the spring and rope at the same time). Weird your video didn't show up when I googled this topic, but after about 40 videos, I'm done! So glad, so so glad. Thank you!!

[@JLPicard440]

HI Julie! Thank you for sharing your experience. I really appreciate it and I am so glad I could help... 😊

Hey, thanks for the tip using the drill. I just watched someone do it this way by hand... Mine are still sore 😖 Worked great 👍🏼

[@sameubanks7349]

This was really helpful. It really works well. I can add two more recommendations after fighting through this. Trace an outline of the housing on the board so that you know you have the spring tight enouh and use a paint scraper to hold the coils down when tightening with the drill. I also recommend to check the shape of the spring where the drill held it. I hsd to reshape a bit before reinstalling.

[@JLPicard440]

Excellent! Thanks for the recommendations... 😀

I agree if you're a technician! Absolutely... but on a Sunday afternoon or an evening when you just want to get back up and running... this works great.. 😀

[@kennethnichols7263]

Thanks so much for the video. Great idea!I had a couple of problems. I couldn’t get the chuck to let go at one point so I cut a slot in some threaded rod and chucked it up in the drill. I also had a notch for the outer part of the spring to go into which I couldn’t get it into with the tie wrap on the outside of the spring. So after the spring was captured by the outer tie wrap I added three small tie wraps would around the other way. I then cut the larger outside tie wrap , removed it, exposing the hook on the end of the spring. I could then put the spring in and put the end in the slot. I then cut the three smaller tie wraps. J

Very cool! You sound like a problem solver... :-)

[@dwayneharris3874]

Thanks for the tutorial. I was able to get the spring back in the cheapo weed wacker I was working on. One suggestion for anyone watching: The spring may get distorted and not lay flat. This is easily fixed so it doesn't cause a problem.

[@wendyvasion4828]

Thank you a million for sharing your brilliant solution to this frustrating recoil spring problem!!!

[@JLPicard440]

Yes, it is a pain in the neck! ... :-)

[@HalvardSkurve]

Thank you so much. I had to make some modifications. The chuck bent the middle of the spring. I therefore used a hollow metal tube from the stand of a solar flowerbed LED light, to wind the spring around. I just had to cut a slit in the end, to be able to attach the spring to the metal tube. Also I inverted the zip tie, since I don't have any space for the zip-tie knob around the spring inside the housing. This mad the knob on on the zip tie point inwards, next to the hook on the spring, where there was some free space. I had to try a few times before making it into the extremely tiny groove in the housing. The important thing is to make the zip tie small enough to fit easy all the way down into the housing, and keeping the zip tie completely at the bottom of the housing at all times, while attaching the outer spring-hook to the housing. Saved the day :)

[@JLPicard440]

Awesome.. thanks for the great tips you've given.. Glad you got it going again.. 🙂

[@michaelcuttic7281]

Thank you. This worked great! Put down the beer and take a sip of patience before you start and everything will be okay.

You were sprung, not screwed.😁

[@tidefan4987]

Good vid. My tip: after you get the spring in the spool, the spool back in the head, use a wood working clamp to hold in place after winding. This makes it easy to install the rope.

[@JLPicard440]

Thanks for the tip! I'll try that next time.. 😊

[@attheendoftheday8969]

Thanks for the vid! I figured there was something I wasn't doing right. After 20 minutes of winding it by hand and carefully placing it into position only to have it pop out like a Jack in The Box, I huffed and puffed and came here. You're vid saved a life

[@JLPicard440]

That's awesome! Yes, I've had the jack in the box experience..😂

i came up with a really safe and easy hand way to do this. I take one of those large magnets for like knives or tools about a foot and half long. Two even better if you have them, and then just slowly wind it.The magnet keeps it both flat and resists movement. Once it is tight enough I put my huskqvarna chain thngy on it but like you did is fine for those that dont have it.

I have a small generator wherefore I was pulling on the pull-start cable to start just after gassing. Up until this particular times I'd never once had any issues with my generator. However, as I pulled on the start cable, the cable seemed to become very rigid to pull, meaning it was tense and only pulled out halfway prior to simply locking in to place with half of the rope out of the appliance. At this time I simply changed my whole operation from starting the generator onto trying to figure out how to get that cable back into the appliance. Well, every time I pulled just another inch the cable itself was another inch outside the appliance onto the ground. I started to watch some videos wherefore this video would've been more helpful. Now I have other camp-mates where we all share this generator. One of them, my friend Doug brought another generator assembly with the spring and cable already installed. He installed the used assembly and it has worked fine. However, I've been vacant from the camp for a few days and I would still like to fix the old assembly the way you displayed in your educational video here. As soon as have the time I will be attempting to use the knowledge from your video here to fix the old pull-start assembly. I would have to assume that it will be easily accomplished per your educational video considering all of the other components are still around here somewhere. If the spring is broken then it may not work ... Or am I able to simply cut the broken part away if it's a small length and reshape the end then perform the action? Feedback is welcome here. Thanks for your how-to-fix videos and I will be subscribing.

[@JLPicard440]

HI... Thank you for the comment! I do wonder why the original one messed up... If it's broke, you'll probably have to heat up the end to reshape it.. That metal doesn't bend very good. And like you said that'll only work if it's a small length.. if it's broke in the middle, there won't be enough spring left to do any good. Let me know how it goes.. :-)

One adjustment I would make to this is to take a piece of luan, cut it into the circumference of where you want the spring to fit (cut into the shape of a circle the size of where the spring is going), drill a hole in the center big enough for your drill's chuck, then follow the same plan in this video but use the luan circle to hold the spring down instead of your hand....might make the second part easier as well when putting it in the housing. I haven't tried this yet, just came up with it, maybe it'll work to make it a little easier.

[@JLPicard440]

Sounds like a good idea.. :-).

[@fordlover3293]

I ordered a new recoil spring for my 1964 18hp Johnson outboard since the old one snapped. Lets hope this trick works. Next step is to track down the no spark on cyl 2 and I sure hope it's only a spark plug wire.

Hi thanks. I just rebuilt a Johnson outboard motor ignition recoil spring it is very similar to this one. I was wondering if it is possible to have an overtightened recoil spring if that makes sense? I just rewound it until it pulls the cord back in nicely and is nice and cord is nice & taunt, have yet to test it. I’ve seen everyone say it range from 6 spins to 14 or 18 spins counter clockwise to get spring nice and tight. Basically I just did it till it sucks the pull cord back in nice and quick

[@JLPicard440]

HI, yes it's possible to have it to tight. If you did it to the point that it's just now working well, sounds like I'd leave it alone!
