engineguy63 238 #1 Posted March 27, 2016 I was just speaking with a collector the other day about the cost of Recoil starters for the 4hp K91. He mentioned that it was fairly common to use another engine recoil that was a bolt on fit, I think it was Tecumseh, however I cant be sure. Anybody know if this is correct and what model or part # I would need to use? Thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sorekiwi 761 #6 Posted March 28, 2016 Tecumseh recoil on my RJ many years ago. I only had a deep starter cup, so I cut and shortened it to suit. Worked fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sorekiwi 761 #8 Posted March 28, 2016 Tecumseh recoils are built tough! They have to be because they have to work 10 times harder to try and get a Tecumseh to start.... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
