Hey, I resemble that remark. >:( :D :D :D I had a Remington Mitey Mite (yeah I know ::)) give me fits, no spark. Changed the points, nada. Changed the coil, nada. Installed the ignition from a running saw, still no joy. Installed ignition from dead saw on other unit, worked fine.
Threw it on the shelf until the customer started complaining.
For some reason I had the bar and chain off, I was pulling the rope and noticed the clutch was turning BACKWARDS. Somebody had assembled the F-M rewind incorrectly.

Now that is funny.
