As I had hoped.
The part was reasonably priced, shipped, arrived and fit as expected. An online order company that actually performed as I had hoped. Nothing more need be said.

Quick fix & weed wacker is up and running!
The pawl assembly was a little tricky to change out, but the pull cord assembly was about as easy of a fix as possible!

trimmer was very difficult to start and would quit running before fuel tank was half empty.

1. removed spark plug
2. removed engine cover
3.removed fuel tank
4. removed air cleaner assembly
5. removed pawl assembly ( used small cord in spark plug hole to add tension to unscrew it) 6 sprayed carbonator with cleaner
did reverse order replacing with new parts.
Started right up with 2 pulls! Still starts with one or two pulls and does not quit until the fuel tank is empty! Best money spent! Not only do I keep a good machine going but it starts faster and easier than the new ones on the market right now! Not difficult job. If a 72 year old lady can do it well?
Get it done! The parts came quickly and they were a perfect fit. TKS eReplacementParts!
