[QUOTE="kbkid, post: 104507, member: 1970"] I pulled the plugs out and cleared the motor of any fuel by pulling the starter rope. I also left the plugs out for a good hour or two in hopes of any fuel inside would evaporate. Initially I may have flooded it, but it shouldn't be any longer. When I pulled the plugs out, I grounded them to the engine block while someone else tried starting it. No spark was seen. Therefore I don't think the spark is making it this far. The motor turns over, just does not start. Now regards to there being two kill switches, I have no idea. The previous owner only mentioned one switch. He was able to start it by turning it to RUN and choking it. [/QUOTE]
