croft 6 #1 Posted October 26, 2018 HI I have this engine that had a nasty chipped aluminum rope pull starter , I'm fixing it up for a friend and want to convert it to a pull start to make it safer for his kids. I have looked at a few posts about pull starts but my problem is there seems to be no old-time small engine guys around me , basically young guys with blank stairs until you give them a part number to google. If anyone could help me with a amazon link or a part number that I could take to a shop. I guess I need the cup and the pull assembly. I have included a few pics of the motor. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A231643 A232784 A232974 A231268 and an Eaton number, 165 01 Jack's Small engine is a good supplier. https://www.jackssmallengines.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjw9sreBRBAEiwARroYm1ySFTCeopvv9PmI4jM4Fp9h4FZAc_M6jRHATd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are plenty of Kohler options. Beside even though I like Techys I have to admit their recoils are awful... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
