Hello, 1st time posting, lurker off and on for years. I kew this was the place for the smaller motors when I needed it.
On this new to me motor that I am working on, a few things seem "off" after rebuilding the carb and reinstalling, I noticed the reason the idle adjustment knob was cracked. the alignment is not right, the idle adjustment needle is too low compared to the hole in the front of the motor. It seems the powerhead is angled down in the front, mounts look ok, anyone ever seen this before?
also, if the starter recoil assembly bolt is tightened it locks up, the rope wont go back in.
and third, for now, I noticed a light intermitent sparking between the upper coil mount and block.??
thanks for any help!
