Part 2 of the Adventures

Turns out, the pull-start wasn't pulling backwards...turns out, the valves on the engine were so out of adjustment that it was "kicking back."  Long story short, I had it running tonight and it seems to run well....at least it did until the carb started leaking gas due to some questionable threads on the carburetor bowl that ended up disintegrating when I tried to tighten them.  So, now I am back to square-zero with a non-runner and I need a small solenoid to put the carb back together.  At least it isn't as bad as I originally thought!
