Please help!

I was out runnin my Tmaxx today and Sometimes when I roll it the engine kills. Well I rolled it, and it died, and now when I turn it over with the Ez start it doesn't seem to catch. Its just spins. Any help to what this can be?
I was thinking that one of the gears in the easy start maybe was out of alignment or rounded off. Is this common? Please help me out. Thanks guys.

Honestly my first guess would be to swap out your glow plug.
I had a very similar situation where I ran the vehicle perfectly fine then took it to the race and couldn't get it to start to save my life. Come to find out the last flip I did must have done in my glow plug.

I found the problem. In the Ez start theres a few gears and the main one (Metal bigger one) was a doughnut looking thing in the back of the gear that was busted off. I'm debating just puttin a pull start on it. What do you guys think? Pull start or repair the easy start??

I would go the pull start route, personally, but that is just me.

i would go with the pull start. if u do go to a pull start u will also have to get a glow starter if u dont already have one.

I prefer a pull start as well. It has a few advantages over the EZ start that I can think of:

1) No battery pack to carry around
2) No battery pack to keep charged
3) No battery pack... (think i see a pattern)
4) Pull start is lighter
5) Pull start allows better air flow around the engine
6) A maintained pull start will always work
7) No battery pack to carry around

but in place of the battery pack u have the glow starter. but a glow starter weighs less then the battery pack and the push button.

And the glow starter works better than the one that's part of the push button starter.
