What changes on repair day

Part 951-14151. The pull-start assembly. When the cord won't retract or catch, this is the whole unit in one piece.

Will it fit your model?

The listing names part 951-14151 and Troy-Bilt, MTD, Craftsman and Cub Cadet machines.

A part only fits the models it lists. Find the model plate on the frame, usually under the handle, and match the part number in your manual before you order.

Great for you if…

Skip it if…

  • You don't own a Troy-Bilt, an MTD or a Craftsman machine
  • You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet
  • Your manual names a different part number

Our take

The verdict

The Rinlius 951-14151 Recoil Starter is a plain recoil starter, and for keeping an existing snow blower in working order plain can be the point. No buyer reviews yet, so the Rinlius 951-14151 Recoil Starter has to win you over on paper. The catch with this Rinlius recoil starter: it only fits the machines it lists, so check your manual before you order. We'd pick it if your machine is from Troy-Bilt.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the Rinlius 951-14151 Recoil Starter ships, check your model number: it is sold as part 951-14151 for Troy-Bilt and MTD, and fit is model-specific.
