Having watched the video I attempted to reset the spring so i could replace the pull cable. When I turn the flywheel clockwise (as shown in the video) everything turns ie the baseplate/ blades.I cannot turn the flywheel without the blades turning and of coarse the flywheel does not re tension. When I hold the blades the flywheel will not move. Whilst not holding the flywheel I can turn the blades in either direction.Removed the spark plug to check if anything may have seized, all is OK. With the cowling removed the configuration looks much the same as in the video, so what could be wrong. Is this perhaps another type of set up?
It is a victa torque motor, probably 15-20 years old. White mower with Victa in red on the front (was my dad's).
