Default Force .28 issues

Not sure if anyone else ever has issues, but the pull start for my force .28 broke today. I was driving it, ran out of gas, and when I went to start it up again, realized that the handle was gone. The starter was always a little funny sometimes...Wouldnt go in all the way after pulling, or after starting the engine would suddenly die and you could hear a bell kind of noise, and the starter would kind of jerk while it was already retracted( hard to explain) or while pulling it would start for second at the end of a pull and then die, you owuld feel a jerk in the pull starter... makes me think the one way bearing or something is screwed up. So I was wondering if just any starter for a similar sized motor would fit ,or if I would have to get another Ofna one( this one was a replacement for the original one which broke).
Thanks
