hi. ive rebuilt a dt50ccmx. putting a spark tester in the ht lead, kick her over, no sparks in the tester. turned the crank with a drill, sparks galore. its as if the kick starter does not turn her over fast enough. any ideas please, bill.

When you crank it with the drill does it spark every time it should?

When you kick it over does it spin the rotor?

I would check the points (gap and condition), the condenser, plug and timing. It shouldn't be too hard to kick over the 50 to get a spark.

Points

Condenser
