Apollo db36/250x issues from using electric start

[Motoman36]

So the other day I use my electric starter I started it up and I was adjusting the idol it died before I could Adjust it so I went to start it again with electric starter it turned a little over and then made a pop sound I instantly stopped and tried the kicker it was like was almost missing teeth it would catch but not and there was a spot in the motor that it would get hard to kick and make a clunk sound In the engine it resets by putting in gear and moving the tire does anybody have any clue of what it could be I'm thinking a chipped gear on the kickstarter shaft or possibly the one way clutch For the electric start well maintain low hours maybe 15 to 20 I change oil every 3 hours I took off the starter cover and checked the gears those were fine I just want to get some input before I dig into the engine I looked everywhere on this form couldn't find anything I tried online too I might be searching the wrong term any help would be appreciated thank you guys
