Bro you're the mvp, I've been looking all day for a tutorial on the pawls and everyone just explains replacing the cord only, now we can finish our power washing job tomorrow!
Same with me too! Everyone seems to just explain the replacement of the pull starter cord which is nice but not the whole explanation which was driving me crazy because those tabs weren't coming out. It turns out I was missing that little spring from the center for when you put the cover back on. 😅
This video was exactly what I needed. Also, it was quick and to the point. No meaningless fluff building up to the actual info as is the case with many other videos. Great job.
It took me so long to find this video bcuz I didn't even know what those pieces were called, watched so many pulley rope repairs tryna get to this! It couldn't have possibly been explained better! I'm gonna be able to repair this power washer with ease now!
Thank you very much for this video it's been more thana few years since I got this intense in small engines. Mine would not engage the motor turns out it was missing that spring in the center for drag to pop out the catch paws. Thank you again for doing this video
Took my 25 yr old mower out today for the first time this season. It worked perfectly when I put it away last fall but today right at the first pull, it was displaying the condition showing in the video. Pull cord is working perfectly but it seems to be totally disconnected from the mower. I've never taken a mower apart before so I had no clue as to what was bent, broken or missing. After watching your video, I suspect those pawls are my problem. Thanks for the video - can't wait to start the surgery tomorrow morning !!! I realize that machine wasn't a mower - but same principle I would imagine. We'll see what happens !
Thanks! We had a different assembly -- it was held on by a spring and tabs not a bolt -- but thanks to this I was able to get the metal pawls back in place and get it started again.
Thanks! Got a practically new generator with this same mechanism (metal pawls). The pull start hadn't really been used ever, as it's got electric start. So the first time it was actually needed, it didn't work, wouldn't engage. Stripped genny down and found the bolt had unscrewed itself and both the pawls had simply fallen out! So now I'm in a bit of a quandary, do I torque it right down this time, do I use Loctite and torque it like you said, or just put it back without the Loctite? Don't really want to have to do it again, it was P-I-G to get to. At least I know how it should look when it's back together.
To be honest over the years I have rarely encountered those bolts backing out so it's not a common thing but it does happen as you have witnessed I suppose a little Loctite couldn't hurt.
My center piece mine spines with the whole thing and it's not pooping out the tabs on less I hold it down. Also of I don't screw it in tight enough it it will lossen the screw in its own

Thanks, this was exactly what i needed. Almost every video covers the pull cord and not this.
This is what I have been searching for amongst about 20 other videos.

Glad I could help

Perfect explanation dude! I'll now be able to start my log splitter with the pull cord again instead of a drill!

Thank you for taking the time to explain this, very helpful!
Thank you for the video, me and my dad were able to fix ours with your video. Thanks again
SENSATIONAL! Spent an hour looking for exactly this video!
Thanks, great informative video, I would have spent an hour figuring out which way round to put the pawls in!
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the video.

Thank you very informative and very helpful
thank you for the great information
Helped a ton
I've done all of this and the tabs aren't catching inside the motor to start. What would I do??
I’m having the same problem I just can’t get go in and out
But do not catch
@@elibateman8139what did you end up doing
What about removing the ratchet to access the recoil spring
What causes the plastic thing to brake
Thank you we broke our string and took it to the repair shop but they forgot to put the spring back on.
I'm guessing this is why when I try to start my wheeler it recoils but nothing else happens?
How do I put plastic looking pawl in the stil in
Thanks
My center piece mine spines with the whole thing and it's not pooping out the tabs on less I hold it down. Also of I don't screw it in tight enough it it will lossen the screw in its own
I had same problem gets loose and spring pops off ....shitty briggs design i used lock tight on my bolt....fingers crossed
Why are these tabs falling out of their position?
