(quoted from post at 19:16:58 02/06/09) I have an older model troy bilt horse tiller with a 7 horse kohler motor on it. I am needing a new starter assembly...im not sure what you call it, but its the part the you pull to crank it. It has wore out and the place where I have my work done wasnt able to find me a new one. Any help? Thanks
i am think'n mine had a 6HP will have to look for the old engine to confirm,,, starter was good in fact I never used it but a few times and that was when it would not start after it set up for awhile,,, The engine blew up so I got a new engine B/S delivered to my door for $175 with electric start,,, it has more power than the original,,, the replacement may B a 5HP will try and post a link
Here's the link but I see the one I got cheap is no longer available,,, they got wet and had some rust,,, none that i could c that hurt the engine
just looked the replacement was a 6HP

So if a new starter looks to b rite pricey a new engine mite B the way to go,,, I did buy another horse model that did not have the electric start and had points,,, the electric starter are flywheel would not interchange,,, blocks different
If you don't know you can down load the operators manual off the net,,, its over 100 pages i think,,, nice to have and mite have the parts break down[/url]
BTW I was very pleased with small engine warehouse
