The actual "poor boy fix"-
Put your magneto back on there, and stick a business card from your wallet in between it and the rotor. Let the magneto pull itself to it, you center it, and give it just a hair of breathing room (to slide the card back out). Tighten 'er down, and you got it.
1.- If you can't pull the card out, it is too tight.
2.- If you pull the card out easily, too loose.
3.- JUST enough to pull it out, and have it drag just a bit on the way out is JUST ENOUGH!

Try taking the fuel jet out and blowing out the little hole that goes through it. Just a little bit of dirt will not let the engine run.

I find a lot of small engines I get in has a dirty fuel bowl and jet That's all i do in a lot of machines to get them running again..
