air filter soaked?? water in fuel?? take Mag cover off, check for rust, possibly blow dryer to assist in drying, connections to CDI wet/arcing? just some suggestions.

If you have no place to keep your MB, and it has to be stored outside, perhaps soaking the magneto in Humiseal is the solution to failing magnetos due to moisture.
