    Well yours is a bit different than the one I had. Does yours have a magneto under the flywheel AND battery ignition?

    DIsconnecting the rectifier makes sense if there is no battery, you don’t want to be generating current with no place to put it. I would suggest NOT using the charging system until you know it’s all up to snuff. Frying a rectifier is not good for your lungs.

    I encourage you to follow through with this motor. I had one that I used to get my kids up on skis, it was a very dependable motor. Last I knew, the owner in Maine still uses it.
