Hi,
I've got a Hayter Spirit petrol mover with a Briggs and Stratton engine. Mower is excellent for its small size, but the rip cord isn't.
It appears to me made of a braided sheath with an inner core of string and the sheath has worn through (after 1 year).
Before I just go and buy another crap string, are there any better types of cord I might be able to fit instead? Haven't taken it apart yet to see how the string is fixed to the starter pully.
The weak point seems to be that the string goes through a metal loop on the mower handle at an angle and it's the friction here that does the cord in.
Cheers
Tim
