MTD-Engines 751-10790 Spare Part - Recoil Assy Thorx 165-rh

Original MTD recoil starter assembly — replacement part 751-10790 (superseded by 951-10790). Designed to restore pull-start function on compatible tiller engines, this complete rewind starter replaces the worn rope, spring and pulley in one unit so you can get the engine turning again with a single service step. The assembly contains the rewind pulley, recoil spring, pull‑cord and starter housing.

Key details:
- Part number: 751-10790 (replaced by 951-10790).
- What’s in the kit: rewind pulley, pre-wound recoil spring, pull rope/handle and the starter housing/cup — fitted as a ready-to-install starter assembly.
- Approximate physical size and weight for reference: outer footprint roughly 127 × 127 mm and a height around 152 mm; unit weight about 136 g. Use these dimensions to check clearance in the engine cover before installing.

Example machines that use this starter (models commonly listed as compatible):
- Troy‑Bilt Bronco CRT series (examples: 21A‑64M1011, 21A‑64M1066, 21C‑64M1011, 21C‑64M1066).
- Troy‑Bilt Super Bronco CRT series (examples: 21A‑65M1011, 21A‑65M1066, 21C‑65M1011, 21C‑65M1066).
- Yard‑Machines 400 CRT series (examples: 21AA40M1000, 21AA40M1029, 21AA40M1052).

Why this part is useful for repairs:
- Restores all pull‑start components in one assembly, eliminating the need to wind the spring or splice new rope yourself.
- Fits original MTD/Troy‑Bilt tiller engines listed above so you get the same mounting points and engagement profile as the factory unit.

Installation notes (brief):
- Confirm the model number on your machine against the example models above or your parts diagram before ordering.
- If the starter housing in your machine is cracked or the mounting hardware is missing, you may need screws or a small gasket; many listings specify that fasteners are not always included.

If you need the original MTD replacement starter for a Bronco/Super Bronco or Yard‑Machines 400 CRT tiller, 751‑10790 (951‑10790) is the direct rewind assembly intended to drop in and get you back to digging.
