I found that it would run if a 12 volt jumper was attached at the engine end of that feed wire. We (my son and I) discovered a place in that wire which ran under the swing-up seat, had been stretched (but not cut) leaving the insulation intact. Replaced that wire and the thing fired up. The wire inside had been stretched so much there was only one or two strands of that #14 wire remaining. We scratched our heads over that one for a while, changing out switches, relays, fuses, etc. A little funny now, but it wasn't then. Ha ha.

Funny, just before getting back on here I was thinking of doing a continuity test of the coil wire from the ignition.
