Lawm Mower repair

    Was wondering if anyone here has any expertise in repairing lawn mowers.

    The pull-cord for starting it broke so I took it apart to re-attach it. The spring thing for winding the cord back in doesn't seem to be working now.

    is this repairable ? or is a new spring-thing needed. I'm sure I'm not the first to break a cord like this.

    thanks.

    (Its a Harry lawn mower - if that makes any difference)

    You need to wind up the spring thing before you attach the new cord. Then let it pull the cord in.

    Where in Kildare are you??

    How old is the lawnmower ? If its more than 7yrs chuck and buy a new one, they are such a nuisance after about 7 or 8 yrs imagine pulling the cord like 50 time to get em to start they are a plague. My advise buy a new one if it is economically feasible for you to do so.
