Well, I have run into yet ANOTHER problem. The clutch seems to have gone bad. I have taken the magneto housing apart and the gear behind the magneto assembly doesn't pull the whole magneto assembly around for the starter to work. Well, I am trying to get the thing off but if I try to unscrew the center bolt on the magneto assembly, the assembly turns with the bolt. So my question is; how do I unscrew the magneto assembly without the whole thing rotating?

Thanks for the tip on the flashing issue. I thought it was a short or something. It makes me feel better. I'll check out the RPM thing too.
