Hey guys/gals I'm new to this site and r/c cars in general. I recently purchased a used 10T from a buddy of mine and was told that the pull start was faulty. I was given another pul start and it turns out it's more complex than I thought.
The problem is that when starting my car I get 0 compression and the pull cord just slides out and doesn't crank the engine.

Is there a way to fix this issue without replacing parts. I believe it has something to do with the starting pin and pressure spring not catching on the starter shaft.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gavin
