CC 129 Hydrostatic/kohler won't start.
I used this tractor daily up to about 6 weeks ago when I started working on my CC 124 where I was installing a creeper gear. It has been in the covered garage since. Went to start it the other day, turned over etc, good fuel but no spark when tested. I looked up former threads and it was suggested that the condenser went out first then the coil. Since my 124 had a new condenser and working coil, I did a switch test today and still no spark. I took off the points cover and watched the timing pin as i turned over the engine and at no point would it open the point gap. I tried adjusting the point gap but no matter how tight I could make it the pin would not open the gap when turning over.
A friend suggests that I remove the pin and compare its length to the one from my CC 124 with the similar 12hp Kohler. If they are both equal length, then am I dealing with a worn timing cam? The previous owner unfortunately painted over all the id plates except on the left rear axle with these numbers visible: 2050046U465(?)5001. The Kohler engine is totally similar in all respects to my CC124 Kohler. I have no further identifiers for this machine.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
