Well it was going to be a parts mower but I messed with it this morning and got it running it's missing the on off/ choke switch. Going to have to try and find one of those. Anyone know how that gets wired? Normally one wire goes to the coil and the other to ground but it doesn't have a terminal coming off the coil? I got it running and just shut it off by choking it out. Other than that I just need to rebuild the carb it was leaking a little bit. It has the green nuclear wheels unfortunately one broke as I was moving it around. I'll post a few pictures later on thanks.

This model has points, right? In that case, there is no kill wire coming from coil. There is one wire going to points. A separate wire attached to same terminal on points goes to kill switch/primer.
