First let me say thanks to all of you for your help and following along with us. Now that Ive said that. IT RUNS!!!! We hooked everything up this morning and gave it a shot and the engine wouldnt even try to start but it would roll over fine. Proving I was wrong about the starter being bad. We were getting fuel, we had spark, and it has compression, so why wont it try to start? We brought number 1 up on top dead center and I checked the rotor position. Guess what? The spark plug wires were on the cap 180 degrees out! I put them on the same way the old ones came off. I took for granted they were in the right order I should have verified! We corrected that and tried again. The engine made about a half of a revolution and kicked right off! I think we were both surprised! This was just a first start up. Now that we know it runs we can move on the figuring out the correct wiring to the starter, and seeing if will actually go in gear and drive. Thanks again. To be continued
