1. Buy a starter repair kit or get five feet of nylon rope similar to what was in the starter from a Lowe's, The Home Depot or the like. 2. Remove the three bolts holding the starter on the motor and remove any remaining rope on the pulley. 3. Line the hole in the pulley up with the hole in the starter housing and thread the rope through both. 4. Tie a tight knot in the end of the rope and cut the tail off so it won't interfere with motor but not so short the knot comes undone. 5. Thread the other end of the rope through the t-handle and tie a knot in the very end so the handle won't come off and the rope won't be pulled into the starter during the next part. 6. Pull the rope up between the starter housing and pulley and get the rope into the notch in the pulley. Turn the pulley clockwise with the rope in the notch to put tention on the spring. Give it four turns. 7. When the notch gets back to the hole in the housing, hold the pulley and pull the rope back into place from outside the housing. 8. Let the pulley turn slowly so it retracts the rope. 9. You want four windings on the pulley and the t-handle to be held against the housing. If you don't get four windings on the pulley, give the pulley another tension turn (Step 6). If you have four windings and the t-handle isn't held against the housing or you get more that four windings, shorten the rope at the t-handle. 10. Reinstall the starter and you will be back in business.
Have you ever replaced the recoil rope, if you had is it a larger rope then the one that came with it? If so, that could be the cause of the binding. I had that difficulty once.
