Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great starter, best in Parts

I have a 2009 Snapper Zero Turn Mower and the last time I used it the old starter gear seemed to go up the spindle and never went back down. This caused the starter to burn the brushes and fail. I bought it to replace my Kawasaki FH641V engine that powers the lawn mower. The first arrived but the gear did not fit the spindle. Sent it back and got another one. This one worked. In fact, it spins faster than the original, although that one was probably worn out with age. Push the starter and the engine runs. I've had it for a few months now and haven't had any problems with it. The seller was great too. I sent the first starter back to UPS and it was on my doorstep the next day. Because of this, Revain thought it was not returned and canceled my return. I contacted the seller and explained the problem with the UPS and the seller sorted everything out for me. The seller, OEG Parts, was great and recommended buying through them. From my rating, the starter easily got four stars, but the way OEG Parts stepped in after the UPS debacle earned it a fifth. I only gave the starter 3 stars for ease of installation due to the design of my mower and the position of the engine on the mower which makes it VERY difficult to get to the starter bolts. You should also screw them back in without seeing or feeling the hole. Another option is to remove the engine from the lawn mower just to replace the starter motor. A little crazy. Oh, and the price was nice. Kawasaki charged them over $200 for the starter. It looked identical, so if this one, $60 at the time of purchase, lasts five or six years, I figured it out like a bat.
