A gasoline-fueled lawn mower has a pull rope that extends from the lawn mower engine and is attached to a pulley. An electrically powered starter motor is brought into engagement with the pulley, so that actuation of the starter motor causes the rope to be drawn out of the lawn mower engine, so as to start the engine. When the engine starts, the starter motor is disengaged, allowing the pull rope to be at least partly retracted into the engine. The pulley and the starter motor are preferably mounted on cross bars extending between portions of the lawn mower handle, the starter motor being mounted so as to slide along the cross bars. The invention also includes a kit for modifying a lawn mower to include a power-assisted starting mechanism.
