Went to mow the lawn and pulled the starter cord and the mower started but the cable didn't retract.

Crap.

Okay....

Take top of the mower and find the cable got caught up. So I remove the mechanism and the spring comes undone. Great.

Okay...

Rewind the spring, wrap the cable back up and put it all back together.

Go pull the cable again and it starts....and the cable doesn't retract.

Wonderful! Guess it's going to the repair shop tomorrow and I won't be using that mower.
