Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): small engine, recoil starter, wire hooks


Question
where do the wires from the magnito connect to the engine?   thank you
its an old gokart engine very old no numbers or names anywhere on it

Answer
 Hello Tad:

 The Metal Engine Cover that has the Recoil Starter in it Should have the Model, Type and Code Numbers Stamped into it. Send me these Numbers, Please. With the Numbers I can Locate a Breakdown and Better Assist you. However if it has Point Set, 1 Wire Grounds the Coil; 1 Wire Hooks to the Shutoff Wire and the Point Set Wire. If this has the Magnetron Ignition(Coil Contains the Ignition Module), then 1 Wire is for Coil Ground and the Other Wire is Connected to the Shutoff Wire.Does this Engine have Point Set under the Flywheel. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
