Restriction in the exhaust creating excessive heat near rewind causing plastic parts to melt? Is this a test or just a question? Lol.

Sounds like your pipes are to close to rewind.

Heat tape on new recoil. Or if the recoil is not releasing properly it will run on the Fly wheel catch plate and look like its melted. But with the twin pipes I guarantee that's the problem. Get the whole assembly ceramic coated. Or add heat tape to the outside face of the recoil.

That was my next plan.

Make a little heat shield to shroud the recoil. Thin piece of alum should do the trick. Melting one starter you might think it caught against the flywheel plate but what are the chances of it happening twice? I'd say heat.
