Well Im afraid Ive got a long one but here it goes it might help. 2 basic things to check. And one specific 2510 off the wall thing 1. Classic cause of not starting when hot was plugs gapped too tight single cylinder small engines notoriously do this but the same laws apply 2. A plug gapped too far can cause premature coil failure...so I usually if the coil has failed on something(often an external thing caused the failure mouse ate one of the solid attached wires in the last week on a lawn mower) plugs get done at the same time. At the very least worth checking. Ok so the 2510...I owned one and tried everything, points condenser, coil, timing a couple times wires plugs. Still had trouble missing and I could tell at my plug tester no light so no juice at plugs when it would die. When it wont fire grab the tester if you dont have they are not expensive even harbor freight has. What mine ended up being was the distributor shaft was loose enough it would run very erratically. Prestolite 4101 s I believe was the number I looked for one for awhile but then tried an ignitor kit. Which worked! The magnet fit over the shaft tight and the wiggle didnt bother it. Neighbor still runs it. Havent run into a distributor for him yet Ive been on the lookout for 2 years just figuring eventually he will need it but so far so good
