Description
Overview:
This Starter Pawl Spring is a genuine Villiers component for lightweight industrial engines, designed to restore crisp, reliable engagement of the starter pawl during pull-start. Made from durable metal spring wire and finished to withstand repeated cycling, it biases the pawl to engage the flywheel and then return cleanly, helping prevent slip and hard starting. It is suitable for Villiers 50 cc and 75 cc Lightweight Industrial Engines and other small plant using these engines.
