Are you testing the plug with it installed or just laying loose connected to ground? Could be weak coil, improper air gap, weak magnet, etc as it takes more electrical energy to fire plug under compression as I am sure you are aware. One other possibility might be the cylinder head has some resistance between it and the ground point of the coil circuit which could also affect the quality / lack of spark at the plug if it is installed in the head. Could try running a jumper from the ground to the base of the plug to see if spark returns. Just some thoughts and suggestions.Have spark to ground, On my 6th plug and no spark at the plug. What am I missing?
Plug is installed. Spark tester grounded to head has strong spark. Guess I'll have to open up the flywheel!Are you testing the plug with it installed or just laying loose connected to ground?

That might just fix this one. Let me know when it's headed this way.I am thinking about parting out a 5 HP B/S snow blower I bought for 40 bucks about 3 years ago, Kenny. Runs great. It is a single speed and is just too fast to walk behind, or in deeper snow. Of course if throttled down to go slower, the snow doesn't blow far enough either. I need the tank and governor linkage from the engine to try to complete a NOS 5 horse I have. I plan on buying a new carb for it with the butterfly choke instead of the slider. If you want the slider choke carb I will send it your way. Just might take me a while to get it apart and find the carb I want.

It won't be right away but hopefully in a week or so Kenny!That might just fix this one. Let me know when it's headed this way.
