thanks for feed back…
a- points/condensers/wires were not replaced, correct? all true ..to be investigated further
b- yep…disconnected
c- I am guessing that this engine is new to you ? and you have never had it running …correct
d- did you check for spark before going through the ignition?…no…..currently using an adjustable spread spark tester
e- are you spinning the flywheel the wrong way with the drill?… yep clockwise looking down
f- does not seem likely that you have two bad sets of points/condensers/wires…. will be investigated further
g- The flywheels for the 6 and 9.5s sure “look the same”perhaps someone put a 6hp flywheel on this engine???
OMG !!! I have been working in parallel on 2 other engines…. a 5.5 golden jubile (1959) and another 9.5 (9R71) and this possibility has ben haunting me… 🙁 !!!!
when I installed the FW I noticed the 2 timing marks on the edge of the FW had not really lined up with the previous position of my FR/RW timing tool….. maybe I did swap FW !!! as I reassembled the engines.
will check this asap but Christmas duties are interfering with my hobby 🙂 Wife needs me close by for misc chores.
thanks for the reminder …..I feel a fat crow looking down on me and the shotgun is loaded 🙂
