Evening everyone!
So I purchased a small engine with a 24 volt starter motor on it (dont ask, I dont know), but as I need this to operate on a 12 volt system, I bought an ebay special starter motor for it.
Then for some reason, I just couldn't get the motor to start! I couldn't understand why - it had fuel - air - etc - but wouldn't "take". So a mechanic friend of mine stopped by, looked at it for 30 seconds, and asked me to hit the starter. I did. Then he pulled the starter rope on the front AND WE BOTH WATCHED THE ENGINE SPIN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION!!! lol.
Once we put the 24 volt starter on, one quick jolt and it roared to life.
Well, that was a new one for me, haha.
Anyway, I dont want to send this back. Its going to be a pain to deal with the seller, pay for shipping, etc.
Can I just open this thing up and switch a few wires around or something?
Input is greatly appreciated... Thanks in advance guys...

He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
