I've had that happen before , you need a new 1 way bearing tip.
Pull the canopy off to allow access and prevent damage.
although you probably did so ,try reversing the starter leads
spin, stop, carefully hold the proflex and wiggle it a bit while pulling up,
spray a bit of lube in there.
Another thing to try if that does'nt work is to start the motor normally, the vibes
and torque should break it free, pull up/wiggle gently while running.
There are more drastic measures I could think of , but this has usually gotten mine off the shaft, do not try to use it again till you get it fixed.
Both way don't work. Can I use puller to pull it out?
