This replacement spool is designed specifically for the rope starter on Johnson outboards from the 1980s (6-8 HP). It offers a robust and reliable solution, especially as the original manufacturer part is no longer available. The spool is carefully modelled after the original dimensions, but with strategically reinforced wall sections to improve durability and resistance to the shear stresses that occur during engine start. This design ensures reliable function, making it an indispensable part of your boat engine equipment. Ideal for boat owners looking for durable boat engine parts, this spool helps keep your engine in top shape for all your sailing and fishing adventures.
