Brian, since this tractor is unknown to the two of you, I would suspect the governor or idler gear to be off a tooth, since it will fire when the mag is turned all the way to one side. To check that, turn it so #1 cylinder is on TDC and see if the drive lugs are in this position.

I just did one that had to be turned 2 teeth from the timing marks to get it correct. That means at one time someone else was in the engine and misaligned the marks.
