You need to make sure your points are clean and in good shape without any pitting. Clean them with some 320 wet or dry until shiny. Then see if the engine will start. You don't get the mechanical advantage with a starter/generator as you do with a 12 volt starter that engages the ring gear on the flywheel. If your battery cables are old and cracked replace them.

I have that S/G on a Wards garden tractor and I've had it 40 years. I do have a car battery in there with the terminals on the side. The battery is from Walmart and is nine years old. It has a 14hp B&S engine. Hal
