Recoil rope is good, been to busy doing landscaping and getting the garden put in to work on it, the old Firestone 5hp front tine has been doing what I want the rear time for.
I did clean p the flywheel, coil and points as well as change the plug to the one from the Firestone tiller and still have nothing.
Planning on tearing into it once I finish the unplanned fencing upgrade and finish building the storage cabinate for our kitchen unless yet another project comes up

Check the magnet in the flywheel to insure it is still good. Use a screw driver and insure the magnet grabs the screw driver. Use sand paper to clean the magnet area. Don’t get to abrasive with the sand paper you want to clean not polish. Then install the electronic ignition. Take the plug out and spin the engine by hand passing the magnet under the electronic ignition while holding the spark plug wire you should get a slight jolt.
Reinstall the engine shroud containing the pull rope after determining the rope is not rotten and will break the second time you pull on it
