I would pull the mag off again. First , pull the reduction gear cover off (little plate that holds rotor spindle ) and carefully look over the two gears. Should have a tooth on small gear that has a undercut on it. Rotor gear should have a L and R stamped on it . Align the undercut on small gear with the R on rotor gear and reassemble. Next, pull 3 screw cover off and make sure points are in good condition and set at .013 clearance. Reassemble and turn by hand clockwise to check for good snap of impulse and check spark. When doing this, use the coil wire from coil to dist cap and take due care. Then pull number one spark plug, crank and feel compression with finger. If you can find timing mark on flywheel under clutch housing align mark. If not, be darn sure piston is at least to tdc or slightly past. Turn mag backwards until rotor is near number one position and you can put mag back on, may require slight movement eiether direction but if you go too far clockwise impulse will set and you will need to go all the way around again to number on going backwards.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
