Re: Mcculloch 4hp no start

[jeff-register]

Please look inside the coil for a point of termination, should have PIN IN THE CENTER, no connection causes an ark & the pin goes away. H.V. is weird to work with & odd glitches. It’s been said, Get a meter on electrical parts. Check 4 crank side slop too. It would at least sputter with starting fluid
(& timed correctly) Any crankcase leakage is not good,
Edit: Hold your reed plate to light to check reed seating after cleaning
