Help!!!!!! I have an old cub and have had it for a couple years. When I bought it , it had been sitting and carb was all gummed up. I cleaned it out, rewired it as someone had converted it to 12V and messed up the wiring. Fast foward a couple years. It has always started and ran well, but never had as much power as I thought it should have but not a problem. I haven't touvhed it in a couple months as I had a bunch going on. I went out to start it and it wouldn't start. I would sort of hit but not enough to start. It seemed as if it would hit once every other revolution but no more. I figured the carb was gummed up because it had gas running out of carb, so I took it off and cleaned it. No start, and I ran the battery down trying. I recharged the battery and took the dist cap off to check the points ect. Anyway I have now removed the dist to check and reset the points, I turned the engine till number one was at TDC on Compression stroke, have the roter button pointed to number one plug wire and verified by the timing mark on the front pulley and put it back together 3 times now and I still can't get it to start. What am I missing, am I stupid or what. I need some help. BTW, I also have put a new coil on it as the other one was getting hot to the touch so I thought that may have been the problem. I have taken the plugs out one at a time and turned the engine to prove to myself that there was a spark at each plug and there was. I sprayed starting fluid into the carb and still no start. I've gotta be missing something but what. I have the + side of coil to swirch and the - side to the distributer as I always thought it was supposed to be on a negitive ground engine
