I got a free costco honda powerd pressure washer, guy said it wont run, well it had no spark, so my testing showed coil good but no spark, so down to the used ma and pa shop for used coil, it test good but no spark,, Im upset,, so I leave it for a while in frustration,, so I am watching a youtube video on the same engine, its known to slip a cog on the timing belt and then not start, as I am watching the guy I notice my coil is on backward!! WTF I guess the PO had taken the coil off to test and put it back on backward and gave up!! Runs great now with the coil and timing correct. BTW the coil looks ok on backwards...

Great thread. I feel like a rock star with my lackadaisical maintenance schedule after reading through here.knock out filter daily or maybe two,hit em up with a compressor weekly or so and tune as needed. Nothing looks that bad though

Looked low use had compression but when I looked through the plug hole. I could see metal chunks but didn't look scored. Took the muffler off. It still had machine marks on the ex side of the piston. When I took the intake off I noticed a problem. Not much damage on the intake. Notice the brass in the crank case
