with a sturmey, there should be a hole in the end of the axle, and you adjust the tension of the cable so that the end of the rod (attached to the end of the chain) pokes out by a couple of millimetres. this probably doesn't make sense, but if you look up the way internal gear hubs work then it should become clear that the 'freewheeling' effect is simply down to poor adjustment.
sorry i can't be more clear, but it should be a simple fix.
