Description
Overview:
The Starter Pulley Cover Catch for Villiers Engines is a small, robust metal latch that secures the starter (recoil) cover to the engine housing. Supplied as a Genuine Villiers part, OEM No. 29470, it is designed for a precise, dependable fit on classic Villiers petrol engines commonly found on lawn mowers, rotavators, generators, and light construction equipment. The catch helps keep the starter cover firmly in place so the pull-start mechanism operates smoothly and safely. Manufactured from durable metal with a plain metallic finish, it offers long service life under regular use.
