Briggs and Stratton 550ex 140cc replacement.

This was a very easy replacement for my Briggs and Stratton 550ex 140cc. It only took 5 minutes to replace and was up and running. Five stars all the way.

Fits my Bolens 20" B&S 450E perfectly

This worked well with my mower after the old recoil fell apart on me.They take a bit to get lined up to the unfamiliar but got my mower startingon the first or second pull no problem.

Didn't work with my Craftsman 21" 140cc law mower (2012) - think the starter cup changed design

Part fit, but when you pull the string it doesn't engage or return. Looking at the old and new parts I think the starter cup must changed design - mine has 45 and 90 degree edges. Saw another company selling the part with a new starter cup - it only had 90 degree edges. Owner manual states it is part 590588 using starter cup 590545. Did find a part that looks the same as what I have - Stens 150-012 Recoil Starter. It also states it replaces 590588.

Advertised to fit my Craftsman 21" B&S 550 EX but so far I have not been able to get it to recoil after each pull. It came with NO instructions though none should be necessary. This should be a simple install. Therefore I don't think it is the proper part.
