Have a '69 Johnson 33 Horse Electric and my question is what other recoils are compatable with this one ?

I have seen one with 3 little springs that cause the pawls to sling out when pulled and one wihtout.

Mine now pulls just fine untill I bolt it over the flywheel . Then it will pull but won't rewind or pulls without engaging.

Re: Rewind starter

The 1969 has an improved design that does not use the little pawl springs. However, it is interchangeable with earlier models that do use pawl springs. I can't imagine what would be wrong with it to cause it to only work when removed or upside down. But it should be obvious. It isn't exactly a rocket component.
