Will the 340 L/C sprintfire recoil work on the 340 F/A spitfire engine ?
Thanks

Re: Recoil
I think it would depend on the year of Spitfire. ie: kohler vs kawasaki
Am I right?

Re: Recoil
I would think that it would fit if it's a Kawi-powered Spit, however the part numbers do not match, so I don't know for sure.

If my memory is correct I think the Sprintfire has a oil injection drive on it. This could account for the different part numbers or not.

Re: Recoil
Isn't the Sprintfire oil pump driven off the same belt as the water pump? The Trailfire LX, 82 and up Sportfire have recoil - driven oil pumps.
Re: Recoil
AirborneX4Special, You are right. I must of had the 2 confused. I did open some hoods and it appears that the Spitfire recoil has a total width that is greater than a Sprintfire. I quickly eyeballed this. It still may work by changing out the starter hub for its matched recoil. Bladefever give it a try and let us know.
