This starter motor is an essential part of a mid-sized gasoline-powered engine, such as those used to power lawn tractors, chippers, edgers, and generators. A starter, also called a cranking motor or a self-starter, turns the engine to initiate the combustion sequence so the engine will run on its own. While starters are designed to last for the life of the engine, they may fail due to excessive use or accidental misuse of the device, such as allowing the mower to be completely saturated with water. Some of the signs of a bad starter include intermittent electrical problems (sometimes it starts and sometimes it won't), a slow cranking engine, grinding, or whirring sounds when the engine is trying to start, or the engine simply won't crank at all. To ensure the maximum service and longevity of the engine, the starter should be replaced by an OEM certified replacement such as this part that is an exact replica of the original. This motor is found on more than 150 different gasoline-powered mid-sized engines used by Craftsman in their outdoor power equipment.

This genuine OEM replacement part is a spark plug terminal for a wide variety of small combustion engines. In a combustion engine, the spark plug generates a small electrical charge that creates enough power to start up the ignition and engage combustion. The plug connects to the ignition through the terminal. Spark plugs generate and then pass a small electrical current through to the ignition. Usually, the main issue with spark plugs is that this current hyper-extends and ends up frying the spark plug. However, if the terminal is damaged, the charge will not pass into the ignitor, and the engine will not turn. If the spark plug can carry a charge but the engine still won't turn, it's likely the terminal that needs replacing. This is an easy repair because the terminal should just snap on and off. If stuck, a pair of needle-nose pliers should make it easier. This high-quality replacement part is compatible with engines from Murray, Toro, Lawn Boy, and Briggs & Stratton. It is sourced from the original manufacturer and ships individually.

This is a rotating screen that protects the lawnmower engine from debris and dirt that could damage the engine. It is an authentic OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on a variety of lawnmowers. If the screen becomes damaged or broken, dirt and debris could damage the engine or other critical parts. Without the screen, small animals and insects, like little birds and bees, could get inside the engine cavity and make nests. This could be detrimental to the engine and to the animal. During the inspection, if the screen is found to be damaged, it should be removed and replaced. A Torx driver is needed to remove the screen. Wear work gloves and make sure the spark plug has been removed from the lawnmower. Remove the Torx screws and set them aside for use on the new rotating screen.

This replacement oil drain plug is a genuine OEM part for a lawn tractor or generator engine. The oil drain plug connects to the base of the oil tank and allows the appliance owner to drain used oil and replace it with new, clean oil. The oil drain plug is threaded to screw into the oil tank and prevent it from popping out of place while the appliance is in use. The most likely reason to replace an oil drain plug is if the old plug's threading has become stripped and no longer holds onto the oil tank. Alternatively, the plug is quite small and could easily be misplaced during an oil change. If lost, oil will leak from the engine, causing parts to overheat. Fortunately, replacing a lost or damaged oil drain plug is simple and only requires screwing a new plug into place. This replacement plug is a high-quality part that fits Craftsman and Murray products. It comes sourced from its original manufacturer and ships individually, without any additional hardware.
