My pull start stopped well..... pulling what to do? i took it off the motor and it pulled fine oneway bearing LOOKS okay any idea guys?
 
Is the engine seized?
 
try turning the flywheel by hand? not to start to see if the engine will spin over freely.
 
It just doesn't pull period or it doesn't grab the shaft and spin the engine?

If it doesn't pull at all, as in it's stuck, then the engine is probably hydro locked. Remove the glow plug, flip the engine upside down, and spin it a few times. You should see fuel spray out.

If it doesn't spin the engine, just clean the one-way bearing in some brake cleaner or denatured alcohol.
