Thanks guys. Looks like I have found a good used one. The part that broke was the inner plastic pulley that the cord wraps into.

I broke the inner plastic pulls on my spitfire recoil starter..... Anybody know where I can get a replacement?? ...heard JD used the same part on a snowblower and it is still available....?? Part number am122187.... However it is expensive so would like confirmation it would work before I go buy it....
