I have a 35 old Jacobsen Imperial 26 snowblower - still runs ok. Noticed
this week that the pull starter works intermittantly - sometimes there is no
resistance when pulling it, and after repeated pulling got it to engage the
engine.

I wonder if the part can be replaced with something similar by a
professional or can it be done easily by homeowner. The starter unit seems
bolted on the outside of the engine but I do not know much about this.
Does the part need repair or replacement?
