if the engine wont turn with the pull starter on the engine but it WILL turn with the pull starter removed the the pull starter assembly may be binding and need repair. the users manual for the machine will NOT tell you how to dismantle and repair the pull starter. you will need a parts manual or a repair manual, not domething that is easy to acquire. To test fire the engine with the pull starter removed sometimes you can tie a rope around the engine where the pull starter was removed from and making sure you wrap the cord to turn the engine in the same direction that it normally would be turned, spray starting fluid into the air breather/filter intake and then pull the cord you wrapped around the pull starter hub area. it may take 2 or 3 tries.
