All rope starter parts were missing.
Pretty easy and straightforward to fix, especially if you took the old one apart. Mine had all the parts missing. I wish they were metal or tougher parts. They wear out break to easily in my opinion. The rewind spring was the hardest part to get right. There are good YouTube videos that show how though.
You can do it! Lol

It appears that the two ratchet pawls had some wear on them. Trying to start the pressure washer would act as if the rope broke.
1. Removed all the extra sheetmetal from the top end of the engine. (2) Removed the rope and spring assy and examined the pawl and pawl plate.The rope was not broken so I placed the new pawls and the pawl plate and also the new "C" ring. (3) replaced the spring assembly and readjusted the rope and fired it up. Starts and runs like it used to. I have to say what made this job an easier job then I thought it would be, was reading a ton of the trouble reviews so that I already had some idea what to expect. This was the first time I did this kind of repair.

The plastic Friction Plate cracked also causing one of the Pawls to wear.
Removed the screw holding the friction plate. Removed the damaged friction plate & pawls. Installed the new pawls & friction plate. Holding those in place, replace the screw. Piece of cake.
