I don't get baffled easily on small
engines so my tail is between my legs
here. I have an Echo SRM225 trimmer in
the shop that was running and died while
being used. It had no spark. Ordered a
new Echo coil, bolted it on and had
good spark but would not fire, not even
pop, yes it has fuel, squirted some in
carburetor, and still no fire, not even a
pop. Plug was wet, getting fuel OK?. Took
the plug out and the magnets are passing
the coil after TDC, this is'nt right.
Checked timing with a light and spark is
occurring 90 degrees late. See picture in
next post. Pulled flywheel expecting a
sheared key but is OK and I see no way
that the flywheel can move on the hub.
Anyone care to chime in with an answer to
this?
