Description
Overview:
The Recoil Starter Pawl Fulcrum Pin is a genuine Villiers spare for vintage small engines. Made from durable metal, it serves as the pivot for the recoil starter pawl, allowing the pawl to swing out and engage the starter ratchet so the engine can be pulled over cleanly. This pin replaces worn or missing originals and helps restore consistent starting performance on Villiers units such as the MK7 and MK10. Supplied as OEM No. 12239, it matches original dimensions for straightforward fitting and correct alignment within the starter housing. As unused old stock, items may show minor storage tarnishing that does not affect function. Suitable for tradespeople, restorers, and DIY users maintaining period Villiers-powered equipment.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part (OEM 12239) for correct fit and compatibility
- Durable metal construction for dependable service life
- Precisely made to original spec for smooth pawl movement and alignment
- Restores reliable pull-start engagement and retraction on vintage engines

- Simple to install using standard hand tools; no modifications required

Typical Applications:
Used during maintenance or restoration of Villiers recoil starter assemblies where the pawl pivot is worn, damaged, or missing. Common on classic lawn mowers, rotavators, stationary engines, light generators, and compact construction or horticultural machinery powered by Villiers engines. Helps ensure consistent starting and reduces snagging or slipping of the starter.
