I had the same thing happen. Does it still come back with the clutch?
Open it up and move the string in circles around the yoyo, as if it were sleeping. Does the sleeve part move or does the string slide around the sleeve? That was my problem, and I have yet to fix it. Not sure if it would work, but if you could get that part sanded a bit it might hold.
