Well,I got my 300 dollar A home and have been tinkering for the last 2 weeks. Finally pulled it off today and it cranked and ran fine with no smoke and pretty good power. But once we cut the engine off it wouldn"t start with the hand crank.The tractor hasn"t been used in 3 years or so and the prior owner always pulled it off ,because he was afraid of the crank. He said that he"d ran it out of gas on occasion and used the crank out of necessity. Anyone have any ideas?

Let it cool overnight and try again tomorrow. Some times those hand cranked engines that a person is not familiar with can flood easy when they are hot and then you can crank on it till doomsday and it will not start.

Magneto ignition. You should hear a click when hand cranking - that would be the impulse retarding the timing. If you have the magneto and don't hear the click you will need repair the impulse.
