ABSTRACT:
In an engine assembly including a starter mechanism having a housing receiving a starter rope reel normally retained in the housing by ears integral with the housing and bent inwardly to underlie the reel; the provision of one or more brackets for supporting the reel in the event that one or more ears are damaged or broken off while being bent during removal or installation of the reel, as during replacement of the reel starting rope, for example. Columns support a reel receiving portion of the housing on a lower part of the housing. The brackets clamp to these columns and have an abutment on which the periphery of the reel is surmounted. Each bracket has opposed channels and is somewhat resilient to snap over and receive opposite edge portions of the column in the channels. The brackets are preferably formed of a heat and lubicant resistent plastic such as molded nylon.
