Some will come on with ign. switch and some will come on when running, depends on stator and how it is wired. Before you can trouble shoot an engine it must be known if it is sound. Using ones finger to check compression does nothing to tell the state of compression 50psi will blow past ones finger but won't be enough for the engine to run. If a valve is adjusted too tight there will be loss of compression. As stated in the previous post there is no magic in solving the problem as to why it won't start. You have to go step by step and isolate the proiblem.
