    Well, it ran before, so it would appear as though the issue is something relatively simple. I’m not speaking about the spark plug leads, I am speaking about the primary leads that come out of the mag plate and connect to the external coils…These are the connections that might be reversed, even though I did hear you say that they were not disconnected when you removed the mag plate. How about the mag plate ground wire, good connection there? Have you checked spark with spark tester, or by just grounding the plugs when removed?
    I am hearing you say that this engine makes not attermpt to start, or even attempt to fire, is that correct?
