    paid 0$  for a inherited  “troublesome motor”   which  basically ended up as  simple ignition issue .    the ground wire on the coil   was not even connected  (bolted) properly . it  was just sqeezed betwen the coil  and engine frame. the rest was  the carb job and idle limiter  screw .

    field trial coming up next week …it will replace  the  9.5hp kicker on my rig.   touched it up with Mercury black and some  black fingernail polish ….looks pretty good for a 50 year old 🙂
