I used the screws from the old coils.Screws that came with the coils to long?

As far as I can tell they are. I will double check them tomorrow. The throttle linkage is for sure.All the linkages in place ?
Well I checked and triple checked everything. This time I took the spark plugs out and put the flywheel back on and rotated it by hand and it is still pulling the mag plate. I then looked carefully at the flywheel as it was spinning and there is a noticeable wobble to the flywheel. As if something is bent? Hopefully it's not the crankshaft but hard to tell.Nope.-----I do not believe the cam is the issue.----Position of the flywheel is determined by the TAPERS on flywheel and crankshaft.-----Check assembly / position of magplate and retainer plate !

I'm in Tennessee close to Chattanooga.I refurbished a 63 model 10 HP a few years ago for the 8 year old grandson.-----A wonderful smooth running motor.-----He could start it by himself when motor was warmed up.---Time to look for a used flywheel.-----your location ?
That's the inspection port, I took off the plate covering it. I got this motor from a guy recently and it ran but had issues with misfiring so I went and bought all new coils, condensers, points, and spark cables. After replacing all those items and trying to put the flywheel back on I started noticing the sticking. I bought a new flywheel for it which will come in on Tues. I hope this fixes the issue.^^agree. That cracked flywheel is dangerous. What's the story with that hole? Looks like a homemade observation hole -- if so, could likely have unbalanced the wheel imo. Also had a sister motor ('62, I think), and ran real well -- smooth and quiet. Your '63 is worth fixing.
