Just the coil if its crabbed...well fuel pump would be good.
Make sure oil is in the tank, Rich |

What about the pack that is on top of the motor? I think it's connected to the coil. Does it need power? Wich side of the coil need positive?

Picture please.
If you have a multi spark unit, it will need power. That unit may be powering your coil, that is how I have seen them wired. |
