Donor engine.
Tecumseh HM80 155627T
Guy gave me this electric start Tecumseh, has manual recoil, the starter was removed, has the electric start flywheel, see stator wires coming out from under flywheel. It uses the later model magneto ignition, no points or condenser.
It has good compression, no ignition fire. Magneto coil laminations was very rusted and the flywheel, looked like maybe several dogs had wet on the engine using it for a marking post (or maybe people) over the years.
I replaced the magneto with new $12 one (probably china mag from ebay)
installed still not fire at all with the kill wire off. Air gap on both mags set at .010 to .014. Not even a light spit of fire.
I can see where the flywheel has hit the old mag and bent some of the mag laminations. Cannot see any damage or marks on the flywheel magnet, magnet appears very strong.
No fire at all???????????
This no fire is apparently why the engine was removed from use.
Any ideas? (other than drain the oil and gas and use for a trot line weight)
