Big difference Ideal for entry-level

18hp It rotates slowly, which does not create the vacuum needed to run the fuel pump, so there is no fuel. No launch. At least not without starting fluid, which is simply not good for the engine. No longer! Since I put this starter on (it took maybe 10 minutes) it starts up quickly and burns like new. It appears to be the same if not better quality than the one that was taken off and lasted about 6 years. Good price, fast delivery, definitely worth it.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Modern
