One of the most difficult tasks always appears to be to try to help by "guessing" at an "unseen" very "simple" mechanical/fuel/electrical Model A problem from miles away.

Not trying to be funny; but just in case you are getting frustrated trying so many different "things", I would bet (2) fully loaded boxcars full of Model A "Whitewall" tires that a real good senior, grey haired local lawn mower mechanic could locate the problem & advise you of your problem in a jiffy.

Not everybody has a good Model A mechanic close by; but real good "senior" lawn mower mechanics are everywhere.

Realize this is not a response heard of often, but just hopes this can help to get you back on the highway with smiles ........ plus learn a little about the basics of non-computerized engine diagnostics.
