just got the magneto off, expecting to find a ruined 1 way clutch, and to my horror, discovered ALL 8 cap screws had broken off and been ground around behind the magneto and starter gear, the aluminum case is scarred up pretty badly, and the remainder of the screws are still in the back of the magneto, luckily i have a friend that works in a machine shop, and will get these taken out Sunday and other than getting 8 new cap screws, I'm have all the parts for reassembly.
I've flushed the crankcase with gasoline a couple of times, and have an extra oil filter to change after an hour or so of run time, the oil drain plug is a magnetic type and was loaded with metal chips.
wish me luck! oh and will locktite the cap screws!
