My pull start got pulled out too far and now it won't go back in. How do I fix this??? Do I need a new pull start???

You could try to take it apart and rewrap the spring, unles the spring broke. But yeah I would just get a new pull start, and I would really recomend to get rid of the engine all toghter and get a starter box and buy a non pull start engine.

HOLD THE PULLSTART TOWARDS YOU. THEN TURN THE FLY WHEEL TO THE LEFT(If the front of the car is facing foward) or turn the opposite way if it's facing backwards

its fixed and there in no wayi am geting a new engine on the 2nd day i have it

Can I ask what type of car you have?

RC10GT

Gawd, there are like renowned for this. Mine did it about 2 weeks after I got it and my friends did it like 1 month after he got his. [:@]

Nothing wrong with pullstart motors. Ignore the heathen. LOL.

Its something to deal with, not anything to worry too much about, you just have to get that possessed slinky back in there.

When you get it back together and working, make short pulls, the most comon problem with pull starts is the cord breaking, usually from pulling it to far, just make short/quick pulls.

When you burn up the motor then get a better engine and a starter box

Fred,
I'd rather be the heathen that has his engine running than the inlightened standing there with a broken pull start.

One way you can tell if you pulled it to far is if you see oil on the string.
