You may want to check the voltage at the run/fuel solenoid first. Have someone depress the ignition switch while you read the voltage and then do it again with the emergency start switch engaged. If there is only a slight difference in voltage, it may be a flakey solenoid. They are fairly easy...

Another thing to check is that the engine is coming up to speed. If the run solenoid is sticking, the engine will start and run but not put out any juice. You can push on the solenoid linkage and see if the RPM increases to a point that you start generating power. Greg
