Nitro revo 3.3 pull start help!!!!!!!

[Traxxasgirl27]

Hi,
My husband has a revo 3.3 and when he got it 7 months ago it had a Ez start engine. He has since the switched it to a pull start and the engine is a lo c. I've done replaced the pull start,bearings,engine,air filter,tires,etc. Now the pull start cord is snagging and staying out then he has to loosen the glow plug to get it back in. When it doesn't get stuck the engine will crank for 2 seconds and cut off. He has done burnt a glow plug and replaced the old fuel with new fuel. Can anyone offer some suggestions?

Check the one way bearing isn't slipping on the shaft, also check for any snags or loose threads in the pull start cord.

Could it be a broken recoil spring?
