[QUOTE="CMOS, post: 399079, member: 15462"] Pappy, the end loop of the spring did indeed pull inside the cup. The slot in the cup where the loop hooks was slightly deformed when I installed the new spring. Guess I should have fully straightened it out. Cup has been straightened, spring wound, and the starter is re-installed. I will do a spark test this evening when it gets dark. Yes, I am positive the choke knob is installed properly (and I do understand your caution on this). Question: should I engage the choke at all on a day that is 80 degrees? If I get a good spark test I will try to start again tomorrow, and report results. Reminder - I had this motor running in the driveway a few weeks ago. . . . CMOS [/QUOTE]
