I've had this Homelite C-91 for a while, got it out tonight and started fooling with it. The pull rope was broken when I got it and I've never taken the time to mess with it, I fixed it and found it has good compression & spark so I'm going to try to get it running. My problem is with the recoil starter - the first couple of times you pull it it works fine, but after that it just freewheels - like it's not engaging and the rope will not go all the way back in. you can take it off the saw, wind the rope back up (it does'nt stay all the way out just 6 inches or so), put it back on and it will work one or two times and then it stops engaging again - repeat the process and it'll work a couple more times.......... very frustrating. Anybody know what's wrong here? Are parts available for these saws? I'm going to need a few things if I can get the old girl running. Thanks, Matt
