Reply To: Martin 20 won’t run

[hiram1914]

I’m having the same problem with my Martin 20 and want to know if the original motor in this thread was ever repaired?? If so, what did the owner (jimbrizzolara) do that made it work??

My motor seems to be in great condition, but it is acting as though it’s not getting spark (spark plug is wet). The magneto checks out (new coil and condenser) and even at 3/8″ gap I get a white-hot spark on a plug grounded to the block. I’ve rechecked the carburetor, the poppet valve and even the timing and everything seems to be as it should. Any suggestions???
