Ok guys I need some help. I have a 48 Cub which I had just fixed/restore several things including: Cleaning the fuel tank and sediment bowl,
rebuilt and soaked out the carb, replaced the fuel lines,
replaced the spark plug wires
replaced the radiator fan belt
and just for grins painted it. Well it fired up like a champ and ran for 2-3 hrs. It was running fine no missing, power was good no problems at all until the engine just stopped. It acted like and I thought it had run out of fuel but, no it had half a tank. I tried restarting and it backfired once and won't seem to fire. I know little about the magneto and how this thing works (it was my dad's)so what steps do I need to take to start troubleshooting. I assume I need to check to see if the plugs are firing by grounding them (too wet today) if they don't fire what next? If they do fire what next. Thanks in advance for any help
