Dave, that's the rebuilt [Mainely Magnetos, IIRC] mag isn't it? If so, it very likely has a new coil or at least verified.
The one I got from Marks was a bit sticky in the impulse from paint, but I gave it a few drops of light oil right on the impulse [not sure about any other shops, but Mark recommends NO oil in the mag oil ports as he gives the bearings a "permenant" grease making a little oil worthless, and more, just plain messy] and worked it a little while mounted in the vice.
Guess, you already noted the rebuilt mag earlier in this thread! They didn't put too weak of a spring in the trip lever or something? It has to catch everytime you pull on that crank - it won't hurt if you have to reset it each time, but it just isn't right - not to mention, the one time everything is perfect to fire is the one time you forget to reset it and it fires.....the wrong direction! Murphy's Law!
I don't think you are flooding it as neither the priming tubes or R style carb really vaporize the gas, but the 3 tablespoons in each just seemed excessive. Could pull a couple plugs out and see if they're wet. With gas in the priming tubes, and compression, the only thing it needs is spark; maybe you're impulse isn't right.
