Wondering if the magneto in this engine is bad. I've taken off the shroud/pull rope and have been spinning the flywheel with a drill. I don't seem to be getting much spark. I have disconnected all the grounds making sure it's not grounded, I put my inline ignition tester on, light won't flash when turning it over. ( I checked it on another known good engine, it flashes) When I ground myself out, while cranking the flywheel, I do feel some juice but normally, I'm used to getting knocked on my backside when I have good spark! lol So, I thought magnetos usually just go out without giving any juice...do they become too weak to work sometimes? Never had this happen before...
In case I didn't mention it...this engine is on a Generac generator 5000
