Go kart pull/recoil start

[natertot123]

Hello,

I was trying to start my go kart when the pull start gave out on me and broke. I took it off and looked at it to try and determine what was wrong. I couldn't figure it out so I decided I would buy a new one. However, when I was looking for a new one I couldn't find one that matched with the one I had. If someone could help me find a replacement part that would be awesome. Thank you!

Post a few pictures, you may not need to buy a new one. What engine brand, model, type, serial number did this come off?

Most recoils are pretty simple. A bolt, spring, then wire coil put under tension. Then there is the rope and handle.

Google up how to fix yours....I'm guessing it is a Briggs, and if so....can be pricey.

Repair is usually not that hard...(with knowledge) ....but we can't help you either way without more information.

Welcome. You might find that the spring has just unwound. Post some more pics from different angle and we can see if we can fix this one for you

I see the unwound spring through the hub, If spring has its ends, you just need a rope, and tabs that hold pulley.

there should be a few extra metal tabs that was unused, or nylon pads that hold pulley down, and a compression spring.
