Description
This genuine Midwest Engine starter drive is positioned between the starter motor shaft and the engine's crankshaft. The function of the starter drive is to coordinate motion between those parts, with the pinion on the starter drive aligning with the flywheel on the crankshaft. If the starter drive is suffering from damage, there may be a grinding noise coming from the gears, an improperly starting engine, or black smoke pouring out of the exhaust. If these symptoms point directly to the starter drive, then it must immediately be removed and replaced with a genuine OEM part before the appliance is used again. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This starter drive is compatible with the following brands: Midwest Engine, Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Wheel Horse, Lawn-Boy, MTD, MasterCut, and Simplicity. It can be used as a replacement part for the starter drives inside the small engines of snowblowers, wood-chippers, lawnmowers, tillers, generators, and other such outdoor appliances. This part is sold individually.
