Almost all small gasoline engines are started by pulling a starter rope, which initiates the compression in the cylinder that fires a spark plug, igniting the air-fuel mixture that starts a small gasoline engine. Starter ropes may become frayed with use and have to be replaced. Replacing the starter rope is not time-consuming. Begin by removing the shroud, the part of the manifold that covers the starter pulley. After removing the old starter rope, insert one end of the new rope into the pulley assembly and tie a knot in it so it won’t slip out of the slot. Then feed the rope into the starter pulley assembly by holding tension on the rope and using a screwdriver to turn the pulley assembly counter-clockwise until it is taut. Hold the pulley in place with the screwdriver to keep the spring from unwinding as you replace the shroud over the assembly. Keeping the tension on the rope, remove the screwdriver. The only thing left is to attach the starter rope to the mower handle. This starter rope is a genuine OEM manufacturer’s replacement part made by Midwest Engine. It is designed to work on most any Briggs & Stratton, Simplicity, Cub Cadet, or Toro made small engine. These engines are used on lawnmowers, chippers, and other small engines. It is sold individually.

This is a replacement screw that can be used on various types of lawn and garden equipment. The type of equipment will affect where the screw is used on the tool. A screw is used to attach various components together so nothing comes loose while the tool is in use. It can also be used with a nut. It's best to choose a nut that has the same finish and threading as the screw.A screw can be damaged in many ways. If this occurs, it will need to be replaced. Corrosion, wear and tear, extreme stress, and high temperatures can all cause a screw to fail. Inspecting the screw can indicate whether it will need to be replaced. Use a screwdriver to take off the old screw, or use a pair of pliers if the screw has become stripped. Replace it with a new screw.This is an authentic OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. Each screw is sold individually. The component is designed for use with lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, pressure washers, leaf blowers, edgers, chainsaws, generators, and wood chippers manufactured by Briggs & Stratton, Simplicity, Toro, MTD, Cub Cadet, Lawn-Boy, Homelite, and Murray.
This is a general use replacement screw. It is a standard piece of hardware for securing various components on lawn and garden equipment that will have multiple locations and uses based on the equipment model. Owners should refer to diagrams for proper location and application of this part. As a securing tool, this screw can become worn over time. The threads can strip or the screw can become lost during other repairs. This is when a replacement may be needed. Because this is a general-use part, it might be a good idea to keep a few extras on hand. This genuine replacement screw is designed for use with Briggs & Stratton, Toro, and Murray lawn and garden machines, including over 150 models of generators, tractors, snowblowers, and pressure washers. The screw can be replaced with a wrench in all applications and should only take a few minutes to fix. This durable screw is made of sturdy metal and sold as a single unit. Those who need additional screws will have to order multiple quantities.
The pawl friction plate on lawn and garden engines is an essential part of the starter assembly that is needed to crank start the machine. It provides power to the starter cup. If the engine on a machine will not start, it could be due to a broken or worn pawl friction plate. Replace the plate immediately to ensure your machine is working properly. This is genuine OEM part is compatible with a range of product types, including lawnmowers, snowblowers, tillers, pressure washers, generators, log splitters, wood chippers, leaf blowers, and chippers. Compatible brands include Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Lawn-Boy, Snapper, Simplicity, and Toro. The part is sold individually. Keep in mind that this only includes the pawl friction plate. It does not contain the screw or spring, and these will need to be purchased separately.
This is a replacement screw to secure the pawl friction plate used in many types of lawn and garden equipment. The part is also sometimes called a flange bolt. It is identical to the original screw that came with the machine and will replace a lost or damaged screw. The screws could become damaged due to corrosion or an incident that causes the screw to bend or break. They also serve as replacements in case the screw was lost. Replacing the screw is a simple repair to make. This is an authentic OEM replacement screw that is sold individually. Some buyers might want to have an extra screw on hand. The replacement screw for the pawl friction plate can be used on lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, pressure washers, generators, edgers, log splitters, wood chippers, and other small engines. Compatible brands include Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Lawn-Boy, Snapper, MTD, and Simplicity.
This replacement friction spring is a genuine OEM part meant for any number of small appliance engines run using a starter rope. This spring absorbs large amounts of kinetic energy that could damage the starter rope pulley system. It helps keep the pulley from being overstretched, which would create enough pressure to break the entire system. This spring sits at the center of the pulley system and creates resistance as the user yanks the starter rope. Friction springs can become worn out after repeated use, especially if a user tends to yank the starter rope quite forcefully. The most obvious sign of a worn of friction spring is if the pulley system lacks any resistance. As the user pulls the cord, they should feel a little pull back, but if the friction spring is worn, there will be much less resistance. Replacing this part is straightforward and will only require a screwdriver. Simply open the pulley system, carefully remove the old spring, and install the new one. This part is compatible with a wide number of appliances from Toro, Vanguard, Briggs & Stratton, and Lawnboy. It comes sourced from the original manufacturer and ships individually.
Firing up the lawn mower should be a simple act: hold down the safety bar, grip the hand pull, and yank the rope. What if nothing happens? The pulley works by tightening the spring, then letting it loose, creating compressed air and fuel at the same time the magneto fires the spark plug. It is rare to have an issue with the pulley spring assembly that starts the chain reaction and results in the engine coming to life, but it is possible for the part to fail. If there is a problem with the starter mechanism then it is typically the rope pull wearing out. Users will know when the pulley assembly isn't working either because there is no resistance when the rope is pulled or pulling the rope results in no compression (the engine doesn't sound as if it's turning). When it is determined that the pulley spring needs to be replaced, the user should examine the pull rope and handle to make sure those items do not need to be replaced as well. The most important consideration in replacing this part is to make sure the replacement is an OEM genuine replacement part, which will exactly match this pulley. The pulley is compatible with Cub Cadet and Briggs & Stratton engines.
