Good day all,
I've become the owner of an older 020 AV with a No Spark condition. The compression is good and the Stop Switch is functional. Just replaced the fuel pick up line and filter and am excited to get this beastie running. Pretty sure the only thing that could be the issue is the coil itself and, short of a bench test, there is no spark when tested with or without the spark plug.
Looking at the unit shows me that the plug wire seems to feed through a hole in the case that will not allow the plug boot to pass through it. I'm thinking that makes this a "kit" form (seen a few on line that show the line separate from the boot) and wanted to make sure that's in fact the case from you experts!
I'd much rather have an older unit in great shape than a newer unit in any condition.
Anything else I should check?
Any other suggestions for replacement?
Thanks in advance,
