Remove the cover of the engine which has the pullstarter in it,
Clean it well before starting,
Looking at the underside - there are three bent over metal tabs, and a pulley,
Remove the leftover string noting where the knot sat and where the hole is,
WITHOUT removing the pulley, unbend the tabs that are holding the pulley in,
Keep a hand on the pulley AT ALL TIMES, as if it comes out so will the spring,
Tie a knot in the end of the new string, and feed the other end into the hole in the pulley, and out the hole in the housing,
Put the starter handle on the end of the string and tie a big knot,
You shoud now have the string fitted, ready for tensioning,
To tension, pick the string out between the pulley and the housing, near where the little notch is in the pulley, so you can grab the string and pull some out like a loop,
Then grabing the string, which is in the notch and now has some slack, turn the pulley and string together, in the direction (usually anticlockwise) it turns when your pulling the starter handle, go around a few times, then while still holing the pulley in - pull the string by the starter handle to suck in the slack,
Repeat this until required spring tension reached,
Bend over at least on tab to keep the pulley in the housing.
