how can i fix my bolens bl100 pullcord?

When I pull the cord it makes and extremely loud clicking sound and it won't turn over. It started one day when I pulled the cord hard, it was working before the pull then immediately stopped. If I go really slow with the pull cord then it will turn over once then start clicking again.

Hi, My same model weedeater started doing the same thing after a few months. I took it apart and found the outer starter spring had slipped a few notches. Reset and bent spring a small amount and reassembled and seems ok so far.
Good Luck
Tom
