Description
Overview:
This Siba recoil bare housing with recoil spring is a genuine Villiers part for restoring the pull-start system on classic Villiers engines, including F15 and C12. The assembly comprises a robust metal housing and a tempered steel return spring that work together to rewind the starter rope after each pull, helping secure consistent cold and warm starts. Built for regular use on construction and garden machinery, the housing resists knocks and vibration typical of site and outdoor work. As unused old stock, it may show light age-related marks or storage dust but remains fully functional. Supplied as a bare housing with spring, it is ideal when your existing casing or spring is worn or cracked, while allowing you to reuse a serviceable pulley, rope, and handle. Genuine Villiers OEM No. 86 9427/9430.
