hi, my bros firestorm isn't working. we are trying to start it for the very first time and it almost started but then the pull start stopped working. The pull start pulled and recoiled but wasn't turning the engine. WE NEED HELP NOW!!!!!!! our parents are pissed that a 250 car breaks before we even got a chance to get it running. Please we need help and i need to know how hard it is to take off the pull start. I am about to take off the pull start but need to know if parts are going to fall out with it. Thanks in advance if i get help.

it is turning over the engine but it seems like the piston isn't going up far enough to fire so it must be in the crank shaft something broke[:@][:@][:@]. Also i did take off the pull start and it is working along with the one way bearing so i guess i am just going to send it into HPI for repair. Hopefully for free.
