are the valves adjusted correctly?.. what happens when the chokes turned off completely?... it kinda sounds like a blowin head gasket or valves need adjusting!!

ya if u have the kill switch disconnected as u mentioned then u should get a visiable spark when cranking.. and i dont suggest touching the spark plug while cranking cause it WILL hurt lol.... so if u have NO spark with the kill switch disconnected "at the coil" then your coil is Bad!!!..

Re: Cracked aluminum crankcase repair options?

Niper, Not to be rude, but would you be able to braze this for a customer for less than the $62 crankcase replacement?
l would agree money better spent on a new block espically at that price!!!... and i would probably charge $75-125 for a repair like this one.. but if u wanted to repair it...then brazing it in my opinion is the only permanent solution...

ONLY option i would do is to braze it with aluminum... u can not mig or tig it because the block becomes inpreganted with oil... ive brazed many many blocks (espically tecumseh with thrown rods) that are still holding up to this day...
