Sounds as if the 1-way bearing is jamming, I'd remove the backplate and check it out.

So the 1-way bearing was ok then? The only other thing i can think of is that the internal mech of the pullstart is catching on the backplate somehow... but that wouldn't explain how it works when you loosen the plug

Maybe you could shoot some motor spray/"Nitro Cleaner" down inside the cords hole? Sometimes exhaust oil gets down in there and gets all thick and gummy...that and a little dirt mixed in...[:'(]
It would work better if you took it off the engine first, of course, so the crud had somewhere to drain.
