OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Engines Questions On Briggs & Stratton Engines Briggs & Stratton Quantum 50 Pull cord length?

Hi,

The current cord on my Briggs & Stratton Quantum 50 is all frayed and looks like it is going to snap very soon.

I want to replace it before it snaps to avoid more work.

I did a rough measurment of the current cord and it is about 1250mm long, but am thinking in the 10 years I have had it that it may have stretched a little.

Is there a specific length for these motors?

I rememeber reading something that if it's too long/short it could damage the tension spring?

Thanks
