Strike that ? Toothpick with grease got the spring out. Interesting .. 1 & 1/2 gal and the top coil and the bott coil broke off the spring. The down and dirty fix was to stretch the spring, works perfect, but don't think it will last. Sounds to me like a QC prob !

thanx for the feedback .. can this be done just from the backplate end or is it an engine teardown. Seems premature to me, as I've only got 1 & 1/2 gallons thru it. thanx again

I would replace the spring if it was my engine. The part number is G70357-11 for the spring, pin, and one way start shaft. G70357-35 will get you just the spring.
