Lawnmower Repair
I have a Honda walk behind mower. The pull cord broke at the end of last
season. I replaced it with a similar cord at the same length. I wound the cord back up and reinstalled it onto the mower. Now the cord retracts when you pull it but not all of the way. About 12" of the cord hangs out of the housing. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thanks. |

Failing this, take it to the shop. -- Tom |
