I am having problems with my pullstart rewind. for some reason it is not catching on the flywheel. Does anyone have any ideas of how to fix this problem? Any help would be great.

Check the tension adjustment nut on top of your recoil. If that is loose it can cause the problem your describing. If not, what type of pawl-spring set-up do you have?
