no devin, :) ..... it was a wire coming from the little magnet by the flywheel... fixed the broken wire and it runs flawlessly... and i'm not talking bout the sparkplug wire either... the carb on that peice of crap has been cleaned about 4 times in the past week so its darn clean

whenever trying to diagnose a prblem start with the basic does it have fuel and is it getting good spark then go into things like jetting and compression #'s
