Yes, the pawl stays set and the mag side doesn't more for about 1/2 crank and then lets go and sends the spark as you describe.

Yes, I am unscrewing the priming tube then tightening it down after we prime. Motor guy showed me that trick.

I put a bit of ether down the tube and didn't get the pop I was looking for. waiting for a few minutes after priming might be a good call. I was thinking about that today. Just pouring gas down and not waiting for vapors to form and take the spark could explain why I got a few seconds of run time and it had been 2 hours since I had primed it last.
