"I have a 20HP honda two cylin
"I have a 20HP honda two cylinder, pretty old engine. I don't have reg plate or any indication of age although styling of the engine cover, I think indicates 70's possibly! She has always started well but for the last few years has barely run except for the occasional start up. I tried again the other day and found no joy. I am not getting any spark, although there does seem to be a very week spark intermitently. I can only guess it's coil or points. I have reset points to 20 thou as a guess and cleaned them but no spark at all. Any way of checking? How can I check the condenser, coil etc?
Any info would be welcome including if there is a manual on site anywhere for an aged machine.
Thanks!!"
