Anyone Have a Recoil start for an F series Lawn Boy Engine Original Message Apr 14, 2011 8:37 pm
I've managed to get two of the old Lawn Boys running. The two with the D400 series engines run but I've only got one carb and reed plate between the two of them. I'm not concerned about that because the machine without carb and reed plate will be kept on standby.
What I do need is a recoil assembly for an '80s model 7050, serial no. 9384904 with steel deck and F series engine. If you have one, or know of one on ebay or elsewhere, please let me know.

Borat.....l had 5 or 6 engines complete but unforantly l scraped them all last year, lve had them for around 10 years and l never use any parts for them so l was making more room for the new stuff. l got a unit in about a month ago but sold it for $30....although lm going to look at some mowers some guy is selling hes say has 10 lawnboys and 10 differnent mowers like briggs/tecumseh....hes ONLY asking 100 bucks for the lot, at that price l will make my money back on just the scrap metal alone... let alone the parts u get from the mowers. lm think l will keep at least one engine on the shelf for parts just in case.
