[QUOTE="CMOS, post: 398260, member: 15462"] Well I got the recoil starter off, apart, and cleaned but I was unable to put it back together - missing Spring Retainer. Whomever had this motor before me must have taken it apart and left the Retainer out. Part is ordered so I'll try next week. The new recoil spring did come wound and bound with a couple zip ties, but not in a diameter that would allow me to just drop in in the cup. After reading my manual and LeeRoy's info it looks like I need to allow the spring to UNwind, then wind it INTO the cup with the pulley. Sound right? CMOS [/QUOTE]
