Well,I bought the motor,Home in the garage.The kill switch bottom was broken.Took it apart and put in a new switch.Got real good spark,just got to lat to try and start it.may need to put new plugs in it.The guy has the wrong ones in it.I think they should be UL4J ..I'll let you guys know the out come later
