Thanks for the reply. I wish I could show you the image I have but I swear it was setup this way and ran. I will try to describe the image...
At the bottom of the coil is a tab that goes into the plastic coil "pack part"...this tab is a Y tab for 2 connections. When I took it apart there was 2 green wire attached to both sides of the Y. The one green wire goes up the into the wire harness area...the other green wire goes somewhere under the flywheel and seems to be always grounded.
I know it will not spark if that is grounded but it did run that way...so is there a mechanism under the flywheel that is switched somehow that stops the path to ground when in the starting position. I cannot get the flywheel off yet since it is so rusted and I am out of acetylene in my tank to heat it up a bit. I figured I'd ask if there is anything underneath the FW before I beat it up too much. Also the lever that gets pulled back when in the starting position has a switch that I can easily see and seems to be working right.
The model number of the engine is VLV60 502014C and the mower is a Areins 911027
