you dont have the magneto timed correctly. you have to be timed to #1 cyl. on compression stroke. rotor must also be pointing to #1 cyl. or... if you are timed correctly to one of the 4 cyl's, then just install the wires to match the firing order. for correctness #1 cyl's wire should be at 2 oclock position. firing order is 1342 going clockwise from 2 oclock. the kill button is only a ground , kills the spark when it is pushed in. if unsure about that then just disconnect it at mag till you get tractor started. perfectly normal to have gas dripping when choking tractor. not carbs fault unless it is truely flooding. so pull #1 plug out and recheck timing, as you need to fix things in order and be sure of it. no sense getting in a bigger bind. turn tractor slowly over with help if needed and watch for mag to snap as timing marks are coming into view. should snap right on the mark. wires must match rotor position.
