Terrific! This trumps all other recoil spring rewind tutorials. So easy to understand and right to the point.

@VooDooMaGicMan81 6 лет назад

Not many of the spring housings are designed like that, that one made it easy.

Man, I wished I had watched this video the last two times I had to recoil my springs. Took me forever and very sore thumbs, fingers, and palms. I'll try this next time. Many thanks.

@67preacherman 9 лет назад

Thank you thank you thank you! I spent three hours yesterday trying to put that spring back in! This morning i did it in about two minutes! You just made my day!

@texbrew64 8 лет назад

This worked for me on a Briggs & Stratton "Classic" style mower. I watched other videos - any one of which would work. Your one minute video shows the simplest way. I didn't get the job done quickly, but I got it done. Thank you.

@wienerdog6112 13 лет назад

Thanks for the video Mark. Of all the easy ways to fit that recoil spring into its place yours was the fastest and the best. Keep up the good work. Cheers

I've watched many videos on youtube on how to do this, from making a two part jig, to Duck tape and so on, everything was to much of a pain in the neck to set things up, I was just going to spend the whopping 6 bucks and buy new until I found this video. My Starter spring is nothing like the one in this video either. But I tried it anyhow. OMG so simple, took me less than a minute to rewind it back into my brigs lawn mower pully...so easy.

Hi Mark, I used your Quick Fix to rewind the recoil starter spring on my old Homelite HB 100 blower. It has the same design as the one in your video, and your technique worked fine. Thanks!

This video saved me from a lot of heart ache. Thank you thank you thank you

@chellmeyo700 8 лет назад

Seriously, I figured this out a few days ago and I was like why are all these people on their youtube videos go about it the hard way. I was gunna post a video but good job you figured out the easy way of recoiling the spring which gave you the time to make this video!! Good Job!!

@Gothtecdotcom 9 лет назад

Finally a video that actually shows you how to get the bloody spring back into place!!! I have watched many... which used cable ties, gaffatape, plies, nails wood, and all of them failed in application After 5 days of wrestling with this bloody spring, it took just a minute and a half to get it in and it now works!!! Thank you :D

@munawwarashraf544 9 лет назад

You are an absolute legend. This video just saved me £20. I tried all other things but this one did the job. Thank you

@ep9229 8 лет назад

Simplest and best! It should have been obvious to me, but I was driving myself crazy before I checked RU-vid . I saw other videos but this was the most simple solution. Thanks for sharing!!! I guess it's not so obvious for people who have never done it before.

@EdwardOwen 11 лет назад

AMAZING! Can't believe how much I struggled with that thing and then see this. Thanks!

@FIXTechGuides 13 лет назад

@wienerdog6112 I am glad we where able to help. Thanks for writing. The best part of my job is knowing that we are able to help others with their repairs. Especially when it comes to repairs such as this that can be so frustrating. Thanks, -Mark

@tipsyhippy83 10 лет назад

Dammit man! Lol I was winding my spring for my mower for three hours, every time I got it just right it would spring out! I'm over it tonight, hands are WORN OUT! Lol, but I can't wait to try this tomorrow. Thanks for the video buddy.

@ernestking2717 11 лет назад

Mark, I struggled for an hour and still could not rewind the spring. I checked many different approaches . I saw yours and immediately went into my garage and rewound the spring to my Homelite chain saw. It took 5 minutes. Thanks for the tip, ernieking6031

@mrdavidurquhart 10 лет назад

Thanks your tip about winding from the outside-in saved me - thanks very much!

@tipsyhippy83 10 лет назад

My pulley is different, but I'm gonna try this in the morning. I have a yard man mower. Hope this works. Thanks again brothaman, cheers.

@burnrubber84 12 лет назад

Amazing! I knew there would be something on here about it , and you where the one, like you say very frustrating when it all pings apart the briggs will be running soon Gareth, UK

Dude, I

@robthesamplist 9 лет назад

i wound mine up by hand (can take a while and a few attempts as i found you need to hold it a certain way for you to be able to wind it by pulling it together and holding the middle and keep wrapping more round) and kept pulling the outside end out to make it tighter then when it was fully wound up gripped it tight together with long nose pliers (at the right point that gives you access to the housing) and offered it up to the slot that holds the outside holding bend. long nose pliers are essential if you have the recessed housing type of pull start where you have no chance of doing it with bare hands.

@atlantajohn22 11 лет назад

Thank you. Worked like a champ!

@Websitedesignbristolno1 12 лет назад

@manzoorboy06 11 лет назад

Oh wow that was easy. Thx!

@claybroyles4000 11 лет назад

Just a footnote to all you good folks, the spring will only catch the spool in one direction, so if your spool is not engageing the spring, remove the spring from the housing and start the spring winding the other direction, with the tag end near the outside pointing the other way, especially helpful if it springs out on disassembly and you had no idea of the oreintation.

@skli11 12 лет назад

you are a genious

@MrJosebolivar 10 лет назад

VERY GOOD I have a shansaw sc330mx4 it start but do not stay on what coud be?

@matthewheywod812 11 лет назад

thanks such an easy fix haha

@deanwalker6122394226 10 лет назад

once you get the spring in, put the rope spool in and turn it 2 or 3 revolutions and hold it to put tension on the spring. Then attach the rope, once you release the spool it should pull the rope back in. If not, you may have wound the spring in the wrong direction while putting it back in.

@2424Alexander 12 лет назад

Unfortunately my starter is nothing like that. I have a honda clone engine and the spring actually sits inside the starter housing itself. Ive wound it just like you showed but it doesnt want to recoil the rope in. Help?

@mykylc 6 лет назад

was this wound in the correct direction?

@FIXTechGuides 6 лет назад

Hi, the spring that was wound in the video was wound in the correct direction.

@MichaelA-gr8hi 8 лет назад

Does it matter which way you wind the spring? Clockwise or Counter?

@FIXTechGuides 8 лет назад

The spring needs to pull the rope back into the housing

@samstafford1179 9 лет назад

After a couple of hours of trying I gave up, Ytube to the rescue.

@MichaelA-gr8hi 8 лет назад

No matter which way I wind the spring in my homelite string trimmer the pulley doesn't seem to permanently catch in the end loop for string recoil. Any suggestions?

@FIXTechGuides 8 лет назад

Check the ends of the spring to make sure it's not damaged. Also check the starter pulley for any where or damage. The spring should easily catch on the lobes on the pulley. If they are broken or even slightly worn the spring won't catch like is should.

@harryrex68 10 лет назад

Yeah....works easy when you don't have to reach down into the casing to wind the spring back up.

@47485ksc 11 лет назад

@2424Alexander Take it to a (known) good shop. Any mechanic who knows his beans can get it fixed for the shop minimum charge (mine's $15) Of course if parts are damaged/missing, it'll be more. If some shop charges 1/2 hour and up, you have just been screwed. Stay away.

@wc02 8 лет назад

Try that on a Kawasaki blower krh300a.

@robthesamplist 9 лет назад

no my starter coil is nothing like that

@kiowastew 7 лет назад

I've never seen one like that either. He must've gone out of his way to find such an easy spring. Why would they even make this video if it were that simple?
