Look at the pic I showed you in reply #70. It shows how things should look with the piston at the top of it's stroke. Here's another look with the magnet setting parallel to the engine if it helps. The notch is slightly to the right of center.

Yes I understand that and I have aligned mine as such but I'm trying to find out if I need to flip my magnet over (maybe the manufacturer put it on facing the wrong way ?) or does it not matter which side of the magnet faces outward

If its insideout or backwards it will appear as 11 o'clock.
Remember 1st place and 11th place. that's how I remember.

I think somebody lied to me when they said a picture is worth a 1000 words. I'm guessing now were back to why the plug was dry.

Okay so the spark plug is dry and the back side of the magneto has no grime, and there is a gasket present, I opened up the magneto cover to attempt to check the timing and. Idk how to take the nut off the magnetoView attachment 76734

Well now you can adress why the engine is not pulling the fuel in!It did sound dry in the video so you may want to start with the carb,is the float bowl even filling?Take a look at the jet make sure you can see light thru it and the whole passage above with the slide and needle removed!Then let us know your findings.

I am already suggesting black paint clogging the gas tank fuel filter.

backwards from or forwards to the engine I'm sure everyone will address it all

Okay I'll check when I get home but could I have fuel in the bowl but not in the jet ?

Yes if the jet is clogged or the passage above it to the venturi or the guide for needle!
