    Be patient and check and re-check everything with the wiring diagrams, clean your grounds up with sandpaper and make sure you didnt break any wires during the removal-instalation. Oh and try changing your plug, is it the old one from when that motor was smoking, may be fouled.

    post some pictures.. alot of us would know if we could look at it

    timed or not - if everything else works it will spark. its just a mater of when it sparks = time. good idea about the rust eric...

    manuals are good... you can download one from

    Online manuals are OK but a real manual(like a booK) does wonders when you are out in the garage and you can just flip to the page and BAM there you go. Manuals cost so little. Just buy one and all your troubles will either go away, or you will be able to deduct a final solution to your problem...

    I had the same problem with a Big Red and I finally found the problem. The wire in the kill switch got crimped and wore through. You might want to check this.
