Description

Yellow Recoil Starter Assembly – Fits Honda GX390 / Predator 420 / Big Block Clone Engines


Add a vibrant, custom look to your engine with this bright yellow pull-start recoil starter, designed to fit most Honda GX390-style Big Block Clone engines, including the Predator 420, Wildcat 460, and more.


This manual recoil starter mounts directly to the blower housing. When pulled, internal tabs engage with the starter cup (pulley) to rotate the flywheel and start the engine. It’s a direct replacement for worn or damaged OEM recoil assemblies and a great way to restore starting reliability while adding a splash of color to your setup.


Key Features:

  • OEM-style fitment for GX390 and clone engines
  • Bright yellow finish adds a high-visibility custom appearance
  • Strong recoil spring and durable handle for consistent, reliable starting
  • Compatible with standard starter cups and flywheels
  • Great match for our Yellow Blower Housing or mix with other colors for a personalized engine look


Fits These Engines:

  • Honda GX390
  • Predator 420 (Hemi & Non-Hemi)
  • Wildcat 460
  • Other GX390-style horizontal shaft big block clones

Note: Starter cup and blower housing not included. Recoil only.
