Push mower starter cord cable pulls but not engaging

[@myronbarino7921]

Thanks for this instruction, it was helpful, I managed to fix the problem on my mower without having to spend money by bringing it in to fix. It was a simple fix. 🤙🏽

Thank you. It just saved me a lot of money.

My pressure washer pull cord mechanism looks almost exactly like that one you removed from the lawnmower. The thing is new though and the pawls were not coming out to engage. A little lube and jiggling of the silver housing the pawls were in made it work every time now. I think the thing was just sticking because it was new or something and not loosened up.

Great! I was looking for this video

Great simple video. Thanks!

Thanks will get to mine tomorrow after work !

The problem I've had with the starters for my cubcadet is that the pawls get bent. I've replaced three starters because of that. I wish I could just buy new pawls.

Yeah my string pulls and spins the wheel but not engaging with the motor so might need to try this out

[@fixinstuff4374]

Also check to see if the pawls are coming out/engaging when you pull the cord. If they're not, that most likely is the problem.

What? This doesnt make sense to me. I have this same issue, i have no idea why yours tightens but no matter how much torque i use snd my torque drill ot still stays loose.

This is happening with my craftsman weedeatter today. Not sure if I need a part which would be impossible to get. Thank you.

[@fixinstuff4374]

You probably just need what they call 'pawls'. If you have a local small engine shop they should have them

@@fixinstuff4374 thank you. I was trying to start it and it just quit gripping. Spring is good.

Do you know where I can get the recoil pull start from that exact lawn mower that u have

[@Bearmac69]

Mine doesn't have a bolt in the middle, what do I do next, thanks

[@Lyle_918]

Recoil spring & pully assembly = part 951-10319 Recoil starter assembly = part 951-10299.

[@hadleymanmusic]

Do you oil it to keep it from sticking?

[@fixinstuff4374]

@@hadleymanmusic you can use wd40 to keep it running smooth if you like.
