Gentlemen,
I am in need of help. While doing yard work with my K301 powered ‘68 Charger 12 it suddenly came to a stop and won’t start again.
My troubleshooting so far:
Fuel:
• stabil/87 and clean
• good flow before and after pump
• carb clean, recently rebuilt, float level correctly set
Compression:
•good? - blows finger off spark plug hole
•good turnover but doesn’t fire off
•piston and cylinders move freely
•valve lash set .008 intake .018 exhaust
•breather assembly correct and recently serviced with new gaskets and filter
•head gasket not broken, head bolts tight, some carbon on head
Spark:
•no spark
•all electrical/ignition components were replaced 1 year ago except voltage regulator
•no loose connections, no grounding connections
•inspected and applied graphite to starter shaft
•changed plug
•12v to coil good
•cleaned points, points wire has continuity
•condenser ground good
•swapped battery, points and wire, plug and wire, coil, and condenser from running K301 (‘69 Charger 12)
•points push rod does push out when turning engine over by hand, but unable to get points timed using multimeter method and timing mark on flywheel
What else should I check/do?

Looking for a good and flat cover plate for the k301 crankcase. My current one is warped causing oil to leak out.

My 312 hydro has the 12hp kohler motor,It has 3 wires white,purple and orange coming out from the stator area but the orange is not hooked up.The stator test around 40 volts ( multimeter test) but the battery is not charging.The regulator is cheap but new (not OEM).My question is the orange wire,what is it for? If I should hook it up? If yes then to what should it be run to?Battery +?. My regulator test was a failure but the tractor runs fine besides de-charging.Im searching for alternative reasons for the regulator not working other than its no good.Like cleaning and refitting all ground connections,cleaning and refitting the battery terminals and connecting wires.Is it posable the ignition switch is the wrong one or is failing at one or more poles? Thanks for any help

Hi. I have a C121 which starts right up but lacks power. A compression check indicated 30lbs of pressure. I took the head off hoping maybe it’s just a gasket, but I think the cylinder needs to be honed or bored out. Based on the attached pics, is this block still good and would honing fix it?
