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 :eek:

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.
