I have a chainsaw that the pull string bind-ed and could not pull out any more so i took it apart and doing so the recoil spring went flying so i was wondering if the was a easy way to get that recoil spring back in there.There has to be a pretty simple way to get them back together because they have little Chinese women that can do it productivity when they make them over in china.Any help would be great thanks by the way it a { Poulan wild -thing 40cc/18 inch bar }

Any time you are dealing with a recoil spring, be it on an engine, or drill press, etc.. be very careful, wear a faceshield.. those springs can jump out and hurt you..

buy a new one & pop it in; they are already wound up. If you put the used one back it takes 3 hands.

Wind it up in your hands, may take a few times to get it right. but it has to be smaller than the recess that it goes into, naturally. You can use some good tape to hold it together and cut it once you get it in place.
Once you get the hang of it you'll be able to do any recoil spring. I've even fixed em where the end has snapped off.
(kind that have a notch on each side) just grind in new ones.
