Description
Overview:
The Recoil Pulley Bolt EM2173 is a genuine Villiers fastener used to secure the recoil starter pulley on classic Villiers engines such as the MK7 and MK10. This bolt holds the pulley firmly to the starter hub, helping the rope-start mechanism run true and engage smoothly. Made from durable steel to stand up to repeated starts and engine vibration, it is well suited to the demands of vintage machinery. As new old stock, the part is unused but may show light tarnishing from long-term storage, which does not affect performance. It is a practical choice for owners and restorers who need an OEM-correct fixing for maintaining starting reliability on older stationary engines found on mowers, rotavators, generators, and similar equipment.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility and quality
- OEM reference EM2173 for precise fit on specified engines
- Robust steel construction to resist wear and loosening in service
- Helps prevent pulley wobble and misalignment for smoother starts
- Suitable for vintage restorations; NOS item may show minor tarnish only
- Straightforward to install with standard hand tools
- Supports consistent recoil operation and rope life
- Built to original specifications for reliable, long-term use
Typical Applications:
Used when servicing or rebuilding the recoil starter assembly on vintage Villiers engines fitted to lawn mowers, cultivators, small generators, pumps, and other light plant. Ideal for replacing missing, worn, or damaged starter pulley bolts to restore dependable pull-start performance on classic machinery.
