The B&S model 14 i mentioned earlier wouldn't run for the previous owner - no spark- instead of a magnet on the flywheel there are 3 holes in the rim of the flywheel,has any one encountered anything like this ? thanks, Mick

It's a Magna-Matic ignition. The magnets are in the rotor assembly instead of the flywheel. http://shop.briggsandstratton.com/BShopProductPage.asp?CatalogID=E278100B-ECDA-4334-8E74-13D701370A54&MECID=100&CategoryID=&lrid=&ProductID=29EAD343-C356-4D51-8387-1B50B0F90166#
