Your lawn mower may be tuned up and ready to go, but you won't be cutting any grass if the pull cord is broken. It's only a minor setback, though, because the cord isn't difficult to replace, especially if the lawnmower has a Briggs & Stratton engine, as many do. Before you begin the procedure for replacing the cord, however, the manufacturer wants you to know that the spring is under tension and can pop free when you remove the starter housing. You could be injured if this happens, so you must remove the housing and wind the cord carefully. Show TipBefore beginning disassembly, prepare a place for the screws to keep them organized and avoid losing any. Download the owner's manual from the manufacturer's website and keep it handy so you can consult it if you get stuck. Changing the Pull Cord on a Briggs & Stratton Engine
