Description
Overview:
The Recoil Auxiliary Shim (.040") for Villiers Rewind Starter is a genuine Villiers OEM component, reference E10194. This precision metal shim sits within the pull-start assembly to set the correct clearance and support moving parts, helping the cord reel and engagement pawls operate smoothly. At 0.040 inches (1.016 mm) thick, it provides consistent spacing that prevents drag and excessive end-float. Suitable for Villiers small engines used across garden and construction machinery-such as classic lawn mowers, rotavators, compactors and generators-it is built to cope with regular use and repeated start cycles. Supplied as unused vintage old stock, surfaces may show tarnish or storage marks, but performance is unaffected. Fit during servicing or rebuilds to maintain reliable starting on Villiers-powered equipment.
