I dunno, Gene. I left her sit last night since she was flooded. Went out this mornin' without doin' another thing to it, and she fired right off. She ran a little ragged at first, I figured the plugs were wet, and she straightened out and ran fine after about five minutes.
Could be weak spark, I suppose, but for the moment I'm gonna chalk this one up to dampness.
I don't know much about magnets, but I wouldn't think they'd go weak in a hurry, and I don't know if they work better when they warm up.
There was a lot of surfaace rust on the magnets from condensation that I cleaned up when I had her open last night. I'm thinkin' that might have cleaned itself up a little.
I left her run until she was warmed up, if only to get the battery charged back up after all the crankin' I did yesterday, and she was runnin' right when I shut her down a few minutes ago.
I'm gonna try runnin' it on a daily basis for the next week or so to see if it's gonna stay straightened out or if I'm gonna have to do somethin' else to get it right.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
