Don't think this cased the problem, but it looks like what I call Squirrel chew. Squirrels get up on the TV and telephone lines and chew the crap out of them. The coax wire looks just like that the outside coating is chewed down the the metal sheath.

Pretty darn close

Mice crawled up in the bottom of the breather cover went down through the heated air boot and made a nest in the flywheel cover while the motor was in storage over the summer in no place other than a Feed Barn.
The young must have decided the high tension leads from the coils were a tasty snack.

Engine would miss to beat the band due to spark jumping from the leads to the cowl.
