Our engine starts fine in the morning. Runs great for hours or all day. If I shut down at a fuel dock or at a lock it does not want to restart. I assumed coil so I replaced that. Still problem. I cleaned carb. Still problem. Any thoughts? Plugs look fine. I replaced plug wires tonight but have not tested.
Restarting

Yes they can be slid on carefully. Just be careful not to stretch them at all. Both the tension of the spring and the length determine the "advance curve" and how the engine performs. Very important.
Be sure the sliding surfaces and the pins in those slots and where the weights slide are all clean and lubed. also be sure the counter shaft and the dist shaft rotate on each other freely and are also lubed.
