Mend Briggs & Stratton Put New Engine

put new spring on my briggs and stratton petrol engine for my hayterette?

The starter rope broke and in replacing it Inoticed that the recoil spring was badly rusted; I cannot find a diagram or any advice in my old B&S manual. I found only advice on putting the new rope on by making a feeding device

Define 'badly rusted' - if it hasn't actually broken, it will probably clean up OK. If it really is on the point of giving up, new springs are available - drop me a line with the engine type/code numbers.

If you remove the spring (carefully!), and examine it properly, you can make a decision to replace or not. It CAN be replaced by hand, but the feeder device you mention works.
