Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Tecumseh engine recoil starter, recoil starter, recoil spring

Question
when i pill the cord on rhe recoil starter it does not rewind. why?

Answer
 Hello Patrick:

 Most likely the Recoil Spring is Broken Inside the Housing. If you want to view a Breakdown of the Engine and the Starter, Send me the Model Numbers Off of the Engine, Please. With these Numbers I May be Able to Locate a Breakdown for you to View Online. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
