Tom that is a 6 V. starter.  It's ok to turn it with a 12 V battery but you 
can't gin on it for more than a few seconds at a time without it getting too 
hot.

Make sure you are getting a good flow of fuel to the carb.
When you get the starter fixed so you can turn it over check the spark plug 
wires to make sure it is firing.  If you are getting a good clean, blue 
spark when you hold the end of the spark plug wire close to the engine block 
you have good fire.  Then check the plugs to see if they are firing.  If all 
of that checks out it might be time to check timing.
