  • This video is another in a growing line of educational videos used by my student's to learn how to repair small engines. The Honda GX160 engine is a common engine and this video will instruct you in how to repair the pull starter on this engine.

    Thanks! I had a broken gx200 starter pull that I rebuilt from your video. Work's like new now. Saved me $75.

    Thanks so much for this video! My dad was frustrated with the spring and put me on the project. I tried for a few minutes before deciding I could look for a video tutorial. This was perfect - very clear, concise instructions without any chit chat! Got the motor running in 15 minutes. Cheers!!

    This mower has been kicking for about 10 years now. Always had a short cord on it after the original snapped and other minor issues with the recoil starter th-cam.com/users/postUgkx-NCBSqqKJlyQ5_JGS_STpsFYihe7bmM3 until I finally had to open it up in an attempt to feed in a new line. I noticed it was all rusty and the coil was going but upon dismantling it was too much of a pain to get it all back in there correctly and opted to just get a new one. not sure why i waited so long to do so but it was a cheap, easy fix and it would have saved me hours of fiddling with the old rusty coil or trying to pull start and having cheap make-shift lines break in my hand during a pull. If yours is scuffed just replace it!

    This helped me immensely. There are many videos on replacing the cord but not about assembly/disassembly of the starter itself. Well let's just say when I opened mine due to a jam, I was not expecting the metal band spring to explode into a giant tangled ball. Needless to say, trying to brute force the coil back into shape is impossible. Doing it with the method in the video is the only way I was able to do it 😅

  • @bill9653
    @bill9653 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was about to try this when I decided to spray a generous amount of WD 40 into the coil and let it sit for a day. The next day the rope pulled back into place and it now works fine. You may want to try this before taking the pull starter apart.

    I'm trying to make out from the video if the threads on the screw are normal or reverse thread? Are you turning it Counter Clockwise to remove the screw or Clockwise? Mine is stuck and I'm afraid to break the screw if I put too much force on it the wrong way. It looks like CCW here, as per normal, but because the engine runs in the same direction (and thus vibration might back off the screw), I thought this screw would be reverse threaded. Thanks.

  • @carlosjazzpick
    @carlosjazzpick 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great tutorial! I want to change the orientation of the module so that the cord handle is at 2 oclock and not at 10. Since I placed the generator in a soundproofing box it become very uncomfortable to manipulate the handle from behind at start engine time. Btw as well as yours my recoil cover has 6 holes of which only 3 are used. If this possible to do without affecting the starting operation?

    • @privatear2001
      @privatear2001 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've noticed the same thing on a bunch of these engines. Only those three holes are threaded too, btw. I think they have captured nuts welded on the back of the hole. I'm sure they're fine as they are. Perhaps the plate or starter is designed to fit a bigger motor, which would thus have need of more holes. I have owned several snowmobiles with much bigger engines and they have had up to six or more holes filled, if I remember correctly.

    • @motoprof1441
      @motoprof1441  ปีที่แล้ว

      Try prying out on the back of the starter as you loosen the bolts. The threads on yours are stripped and prying out sometimes allows better threads to engage and then the bolt may come out.
