Be careful, and always follow the recommended procedure for cranking "just in case"!

Apparently, you have "mag" ignition.

The timing should be set no earlier than TDC, or you risk a "kicback"

With the "kill switch" "OFF", slowly bring the engine up on #1 TDC. The spark occurs when you hear the mag's impulse "trip".

The timing marks can be viewed by removing the little cover under the flywheel, and looking UP at them.

See where the timing is set... since it doesn't always "kick", the problem COULD be related to a sticky, gummy "impulse" in the mag, if the timing IS correct.
