  No quite.  This only damaged the key and not the keyway.  But identical
symptoms and that is the SHO tie -in.  :)

    Is that similar to crank cancer on the GEN I,II?

      Been tinkering with my turd of a turtle Snapper snowblower for the
last week.  Seems it would take a richer and richer mixture last year to
keep it running.  This year I started it and it ran the same.  Took the carb
off and cleaned it all out and I could not get it restarted.  Of course I
figured I fubared the carb somehow.

      Any way I proceeded to take all apart, good compression, wet plug,
good spark but no start.

      Turns out the flywheel key sheared off.  It's not only the SHOs that
give me fits.....
