Re: help 45hp chrysler wont start

take off the flywheel and check that the flywheel key hasn't sheared,

clean the points and check the points gap..or replace points and condensers with a new set,

also, while flywheel is off, check that the magnets inside the FW are still good, l have one that has only one magnet working now,
most likely to be the first couple of things though
