If the car won't start since you put on the roto start.. You may have an air leak on your roto start plate. This happed to me just last week on a car that I fixed the pull start on, the seal was bad on the one way bearing.

I gave up on roto starts and pull starts a long time ago. You just can't go wrong with a starter box.
