Frequently Asked Questions

Will this work on my Honda engine?

This is the Honda pull cord size for the GX160 (5.5 HP) and GX240 (8 HP). If your recoil housing matches those models, you're in good shape.

Do we need special tools to install it?

Usually not. You'll need basic hand tools and a little patience.

• Remove the recoil cover
• Thread and knot rope
• Re-tension the spring carefully

Should we replace anything else at the same time?

If your knob is worn or cracked, replace it while you're installing your new Honda motor pull cord. We also stock the Honda recoil starter knob (part #38461-ZH8-013).
