    If it was easy then it wouldn’t be challenging and if it’s not challenging it’s not fun. I think I’ve got the rings seated good. No it didn’t start but I used a manual rope and pulled it about 100 times lol. Spraying fuel mix in the mixture valve. It would kinda sound like it was trying to hit but no smoke or nothing. Then I crossed the plug wires just to see and it coughed and sneezed more but after reading and tracing wires they were right the first time. I’m in the process of ordering the coil spacer ring as this is the second motor I’ve needed it. I put the wave washer and armature back on first and still couldn’t find a mounting problem. Tho it probably wasn’t the “right” thing to do, I took a grinder and hit the underside of flywheel where it was rubbing the armature and it’s not hitting anymore. I’ll get it eventually, it’s just a hobby.

    It's a jungle out there.
