SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED A NEW REAR FREEWHEEL TO ME - JUST SIMPLY REMOVE AND USE A NEW SHIMANO OR SUNTOUR ONE - THERE ABOUT £10 - £15 ON THE BAY. MIGHT NEED TO SOAK THE OLD ONE WITH WD40 AND THE USE A REMOVAL TOOL OR HIT WITH AN OLD SCREWDRIVER AND HAMMER - THE NEW ONE WILL TIGHTEN ITSELF WHEN YOU HAVE REPLACED IT BY PEDALLING AS HARD AS YOU CAN - HOPE THIS HELPS
