Try the coil, then try pumping the primer ball when it's starts to die.....different tank, then report back.

You might possibly try this.

i swapped coils and it did not follow. So I thing I’m going to replace the power pack.

I have a new tank and if I squeeze the bulb it dies

Check for damaged wires coming from under the flywheel....could have a short

When you swapped coils did you also move the coil wire?

Looks can be deceiving.
My wife looks good but doesn’t work.
Swap the wires and see if the problem follows.
Funny! My uncle always said, "the woman's place is in the home, right after she gets off work?"

God rest his sole.

Take picture of under the flywheel. Plug wires looks my good means nothing.

Try to eliminate one thing at a time correctly.
I already took it apart, the black wire I cut by accident removing the shielding of the wires. The original #2 looked pretty new before I moved it to #1 position.

Also also checked the leaf valves and they looked good and pretty new.

Well your in it now. Go online and seek out testing all those components and then you should have this tool to put everything back on so they are set right in relation to the flywheel.

Look and see if any of those components have wear marks where they might have rubbed on the flywheel.
