Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Honda HRU215 mower, hairline crack, spring tension

Question
Eric thanks for the reply. Mower is now fine - dismantled pulley and refitted spring.
Thanks!

Answer
Just curious, was there any broken parts?  Tecumseh and some Briggs starter pulleys used to crack.  As you got close to the end of the spring tension the spring would suddenly unwind.  After several tries I used a flashlight and was able to see the hairline crack on the pulley where the spring connected.
