  • Thanks very much. My Tecumseh 10 hp is back up and running with a 1/2 hour's worth of labour on my inexperienced part. Had to create a notch with a utility knife and there was a metal guard where the handle hole is to make things difficult. A heavily modified coat hanger was used for the hook. I used six feet of cord. All is working well. Thanks again. Now on to the auger!

  • @repguy2020 you're welcome

  • Hi how many inches of rope do you usually use when repairing these pull starters?

  • Thanks for this great video the cord on my blower ( same as your red one only mine is green ) just broke where the knot is at the end of the line in the coil so I will try to fix it tomorrow after just watching your video.

  • Great video! Much appreciated!

  • Thanks for the video, It really helped me fix my snowblower. Now if only it would start.

  • Thanks for your video. The pull-rope to my 1993 Snapper 724 broke today. Followed your instructions exactly and it was back in service in 30 minutes. Even used your tip on using a hot screwdriver to burn the hole. Very helpful. Thanks again!

  • Thanks for the tutorial

  • Thanks for the video. My spring wasn't engaging, so I viewed another one of your videos on replacing that part. However, in the process of banging it out, I tested winding it again, and the spring engaged?! What might have happened inside the mechanism to cause that, first not rewinding, banging at the pin to get it out, and half way through - it works? At any rate, the cord is now re-installed, and plan on reconnecting to the snow thrower tomorrow. Thanks again --
