This spring or container fits gardening tools such as a trimmer. The spring works to recoil a starter rope. If your spring has been worn out, it can lose tension and even break. If the spring breaks, the starter rope will not retract. To prevent this, it is best to replace the spring. The tools needed for this repair are: T25 Torx bit, spark plug wrench, clutch tool, and rope. For installation instructions refer to the diagram provided by the manufacturer.

This was a direct replacement for a starter that has worked poorly for 2 years. It's easy to install and very cheap to fix using their DIU video help. I also like that it helps keep old lawn equipment out of our landfill and increases the service life too. It's worth the effort in our "throw away" mentality.
