Thanks for the response. Here are a few more details..

I checked the compression with my finger and also by covering the carb. The compression pushed my finger out and when covering the carb my hand was sucked into the carb.

I removed both plugs and reconnected them to the plug wires. I only saw spark from one of the plugs. If I swapped the coil wires (unscrewed and swpped the wires) and the spark moved to the other plug. It seems like the coil is only running one of the wires, hence my question of "do they fire at the same time". I will replace the points and set the gap, but I'd like to see both of the plugs fire first. A schematic of this thing would be nice, especially of the coil since it looks like there are 2 different windings, one for each plug.

So far all the real manuals I can find on the internet are for sale only. I'll buy them but only if I can get this engine running first. If it's shot I'll have to dump some cash in a rebuild or re-engine.

Thanks for all the help!
