How to fix Moped Bendix

I have been working on my Dadogs Dado-GS D50QT-11 for about a week now trying to get it started, the problem is that my bendix was slipping on the 14 tooth gear at the end the rotator cuff normally spins in 1 direction for retraction but mine was spinning in both directions under high torque, I don't have the kickstarter assembly the previous owner removed it. My solution to this problem was to take a socket a bit larger than the rotator cuff and place it over the back of it,
_ _
|½|
|--| <---- socket

__|_|__ <----- end of bendix shaft
|------| <---- bearings slip inside when torqued
(((|)))

then i took a trusty hammer and beat the hell out of the top of it gave it about 15 good whacks, then it wouldn't spin in either direction. I was like oh shit i ruined it. Then i put some PB blaster lubricant inside of it you could just use oil if that's all you have, and i grabbed the rotator cuff with a pair of pliers and grabbed the gears with another set of pliers then i began twisting, and twisting until it loosened up enough to spin it with my hands then i put the assembly back together with all the little snap rings and springs and gyro cuffs all that stuff, now it only spins in one direction like it should and I get it to start every time, without an extra 3 or 4 attempts and that annoying whirring grinding noise!!!!!!!

This is my only form of transportation and it failed on me at the worst possible time, right before i had to go to my 2nd day of training for a new job. it totally sucked ass they rescheduled me and I had all this spare time to brain bust on that little bastard of a bendix. Now that i got it working I have to change my oil and spark plug, My moped is a 50cc and for some reason it goes way over the 10 on the rpm meter and i can go 55 on the interstate. LOL then when i stop and park it dies by itself and i have to recharge the battery. definetly needs a new spark plug.

sparkplug is a type z9y champion.

I put 15W50 in it also because of the high heat.

dont use 15w-50 it made my scooter run poorly, kept stalling and sputtering and don't use any other spark plugs besides champion cause the other kind will burn out your distributor cable slowly.
