Hi ed this is a time consuming one. Firstly remove the starter head and turn it over. Then by hand turn the cord holder anti clockwise by hand until the spring inside cant turn no more. Get some one to hold the whole lot and then try and thread the new string through until it goes through the hole in the pully. When its in Tie a big knot in the end and then pull the cord down so its tight. Release the cord pully slowly and it should retract back in with the strength of the spring. This should fix it.

The operator presence bail must be in the run position to release the flywheel brake. If you can't pull the rope with the bail in the run position, your rope is fouled. You will have to remove the shroud and take it to a repair shop.
