Was the 268 running before the upgrade.

No. It had a bad piston and cylinder when i got it.

Got one thats about got me stumped. Working on a 268xp husky. Put a 272 piston and cylinder on it. Went to start it, and wouldn't fire. Checked and no spark. Thouht id checked it before, but ok. Put a coil on it off of a parts saw, and still no spark! Ok, dug up a 3rd coil, no spark again! Checking it with the switch wire disconnected, and coil gapped the thickness of a business card. Any thoughts?

Zero thoughts on the explained situation...

If no spark, you got a bad coil, flywheel, or a bad switch.

Seems ok, but I'm going to try a different one, if i can find one.

Could be plug wire

Solid state ignitions don’t make a good spark at cranking speed to begin with.

Try a well grounded (vice grips) new, dry plug with a narrow(ish) gap.

I’ve had to turn off the shop lights and close the overhead door on some. [emoji34]

Monday, a/c compressor crapped out & welds on a marker mount broke so I got 104 acres knocked out & Tuesday had a shaft bearing seize up but still got 164 acres done. Maybe today we can get by without any breakdowns.

Had a Honda 5.5 washer motor yesterday, no pump on it ran great ,, pump on it full load , it would run 5 minutes then start popping and would die ..

Rarely see a bad plug but it was , the only thing I could tell was the plug smelled like bad old gas , like varnish, NGK as well .

New plug fixed

Sunday I was running a Kohler M18 engine that came back from the dead. All of sudden it just died. I thought "Nuts". Found no spark, changed the coil. Still no spark. Tried yet another coil. Still nothing. Grabbed another pair of spark plugs and installed them. It started. Never seen 2 plugs go bad at the same time.

There are some saws the cylinder and spark plug hole are surrounded by plastic. The 660 EVL Echo. [emoji2959]They defy placement of the plug or lead to check for spark. [emoji2959]

I’ve one of them in line spark checkers but it only lights up with an old magneto ignition.[emoji37]

Got the engine set down in the newest 317 this evening. Hooked up the drive shaft and started it.
Nothing blew up.
And the hydrostat actually works, too.

This one will get a deck. Be a grass cutter down at the stamp.

My daughter sent me that 2-3 years ago, apparently some of life’s lessons stick with us or rather our children.

*B-S....! This white boy can.

Well it takes 67 drivers for a 16” x .325” on an 026.

Baileys changed their bar/chain selector for the worst. [emoji90]
