Description
Overview:
This Rewind Spring is a Genuine Stihl part for the recoil starter assembly on Stihl chainsaws, including MS 231 and MS 231 C. Manufactured from hardened spring steel, it stores and releases energy to rewind the starter cord smoothly after each pull, helping to deliver consistent, reliable starts. The spring sits inside the starter housing and restores proper tension when the original spring has weakened, snapped, or lost its shape. Built to withstand regular use and the shock loads of repeated starting, it helps maintain the overall reliability of the saw in workshop, forestry, and garden settings. Supplied as the spring only. Manufacturer Part Number: 1143 190 0600.

Suitable for workshop servicing, site repairs, and routine maintenance of saws used in forestry, landscaping, agriculture, and domestic wood cutting.
