Lately its been a frikin pain to start. Doesnt kick over, shows it has no spark then needs me to run it down a hill and even half the time it wont want to start. If it does start its performance is tops once i get the revvs high but im screwed once it stall or turns off

Brand new plugs as well have been used. Im no expert but i think it could be the magneto not pushing out enuf spark mabey...also wheni does start down the hill its barely doing it you hear a x 1 explosion then it sorta gets going

Help please thank you
 
Take some sandpaper and clean the pick-up's for the magneto, that and a new plug wire will straighten out the firing problem, it also sounds like you should check the reed's out they may be split.
 
when mine did this it turned out the old ignition lead to the spark plug was faulty, I got a second hand one from a CAR wrecker for free and never had another problem
good luck
