This replacement friction spring is a genuine OEM part meant for any number of small appliance engines run using a starter rope. This spring absorbs large amounts of kinetic energy that could damage the starter rope pulley system. It helps keep the pulley from being overstretched, which would create enough pressure to break the entire system. This spring sits at the center of the pulley system and creates resistance as the user yanks the starter rope. Friction springs can become worn out after repeated use, especially if a user tends to yank the starter rope quite forcefully. The most obvious sign of a worn of friction spring is if the pulley system lacks any resistance. As the user pulls the cord, they should feel a little pull back, but if the friction spring is worn, there will be much less resistance. Replacing this part is straightforward and will only require a screwdriver. Simply open the pulley system, carefully remove the old spring, and install the new one. This part is compatible with a wide number of appliances from Toro, Vanguard, Briggs & Stratton, and Lawnboy. It comes sourced from the original manufacturer and ships individually.
