Lots of parts for this thing are available because it shares the powerhead with the current TS-350 demo saw. Also, I think the 08s is still being sold in Brazil.

Is it electronic or points? If points, check switch and wiring, then get the flywheel off and make sure points are grounding and timing is close. If no change, replace points and condensor.
If electronic, check all wiring and switch. Then make sure module is grounded. If still nothing, replace module. Make sure bearings are tight and flywheel is not hitting coil.
