Overview:
The Starter Plate Distance Piece for Jap Model JRS8 Two Stroke is a genuine spacer used to set the correct gap between the starter plate and adjacent components in the starter assembly. This precise metal distance piece helps keep the starter plate aligned so the pull-start system engages cleanly and runs without binding. Built for the JRS8 two-stroke engine, it supports reliable starts and reduces unnecessary wear on mating parts. As an unused vintage old stock item, it may show light tarnishing or storage marks, but it remains fully serviceable.
