RMyers 9 #1 Posted March 15, 2014 Just picked this lil guy up for my wife and the pull start does not grab when pulled. Any pics of what parts are supposed to be there would be grateful 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #2 Posted March 15, 2014 (edited) A few of the different recoils Kohler offered are covered in group 22-23 of this download... and here's the Fairbanks Morse manual. Edited March 15, 2014 by AMC RULES Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rydogg 186 #3 Posted March 15, 2014 Here are some pictures of mine it is the same as yours and is currently for sale at the following link http://www.ebay.com/itm/301122684816?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 That is not usually the type that is used, usually it is the same as the one you see in my last picture, that is a 633 with the correct recoil.

Lane Ranger 10,488 #4 Posted March 15, 2014 The Kohler recoils are still around but a little pricey like all the older recoils. You can find parts like the springs and internal rope pulley's etc. They clean up nice and you can polish them to a shine which looks very nice on the tractor.

TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #5 Posted March 15, 2014 Kohler used the FM retractable starters until they built their own - which was apparently in 1962/1963. I have seen a few 633 models with FM starters and figure they're just earlier K141 engines. This is from a Kohler parts manual: Note the presence & orientation of the sharp edge on the friction shoe plate. ("L" in the diagram) Parts "E" through "J" must be in good condition and not oiled in order for the friction shoes to extend correctly. Some of those parts are still out there, but you might have to do some digging. Check eBay, older Kohler dealers, etc. and they will turn up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMyers 9 #6 Posted March 16, 2014 So what cup does the kohler recoil picutred above use??? Will the one from the FM work for this recoil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rydogg 186 #7 Posted March 17, 2014 The recoil that is in my last picture and the one lane ranger uses the cup pictured below I don't think it will work with the fairbanks morse style in the first pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
