I rented a larger drill and got it spinning. It did free up a lot. If this doesn’t get it free enough, then I’ll pull the jugs off and hone them. Afterwards I tried to start it again and got closer than ever. It ran for a couple of seconds. With the jugs off the you can spin the motor with two fingers. There is no sloop in the bearings. I’ve pulled the lower unit apart, cleaned and greased it, so I know it is fine. The coil rebuild has good spark. The timer is tripled checked, and points / plugs spark every time. The battery is charged and good. I’ve got two which I have tested in parallel with no improvement. My carb was a problem and flooded quickly. After I got it apart and lapped the valve seats and cleaned it up it is working perfectly thanks to Tub’s cap and spring. I have good compression. With spark, fuel, and compression and it still won’t run. It tries to start every turn. I’ll focus this weekend on getting it more free.
