# Ariens recoil start



## Gipp83 (Jan 30, 2016)

First technical post. I searched the forum the best I could but didn't see anything. I picked up a ariens st724 model number 932022. The recoil starter is broken, seems to have broke the arm/part that connects to the cup. I've searched the Internet and can't seem to find a replacement. This one has a hole through the center that a shaft goes through to turn a generator, that mounts on the back side of the starter, to power the light. Has anyone encountered this before? Any ideas where to get one?

It might be more helpful if you gave us the numbers off the engine :icon_whistling:

Is it a Tecumseh H70-130266L ??

I would want to make sure it's the same engine before ordering anything but it seems the assembly might still be available from some sources or the parts for that pawl if it's repairable.

Gipp - bit more info for you in link below. It explains what info you need to get from the engine. Best bet is to snap a pic when you find the numbers.

Sorry should of included that. Yes, it's a H70-130266L. I've searched most of the repair sites, and either their not setup for the generator or not available anymore. I'll probably end up eliminating the light if it comes down to it. 43128 I would be interested in one if i can't find that exact one.
