    There are small "ears" inside the rope assembly, that might be worn. Take apart the rope assembly, usually with a phillips screwdriver, and see if anything looks broken. Otherwise, take it to a small engine repairperson. Good luck.
    PS; If you can fix it yourself, you can order parts online, or even get them from a small engine repair shop.
