It would have to be a LOT of rust to fill a gap three dollar bills thick. Usually there's just a thin coating of surface rust, and still plenty of gap.
If the rust were so thick that it closed the gap, a few pulls of the pull rope would knock it right off. No need to sand.
I've been pulled into the fantasy that sanding that rust off would restore spark. It NEVER has. I've always had to pull the flywheel and fiddle with the points to get spark on these old Briggs style motors...
Which leads me to a question: I bought a chipper shredder with a non-running Briggs motor back in the spring. Looks like any other classic 5HP Briggs, no spark, so like 100 times before I opened it up and pulled the flywheel to find... NO POINTS, NO CONDENSER. There wasn't even a place to mount them to the block.
All there is, is a simple magneto coil in the standard location. No electronics.
If all you need is a simple coil and a magnet on the flywheel, why bother with points and condensors for the last 100 years?
