Giving throttle still same result. Fires and still doesn’t run, unfortunately.

SOLVED
WEll it’s been a journey but figured out it was the power pack. There is a wire that goes from the starter solenoid to the power pack and delivers 12v while cranking. Then when cranking is over the power pack should take over and begin producing spark. It’s the yellow/red wire. You can test but cutting that wire and running a 12v direct into it on the power pack side. Then just start the boy as normal at the key. It should run fine and then when you disconnect that 12v the engine will stop. Bad power pack!

sending this crap power pack into CDI as less than 1 year old and hopefully will get replaced for free.
