Ok, there is a guy from Mich, who bought an H last year to haul his boat in and out of the lake Erie, he has a cottage In the provincial park just down the road, he was talkin to his neighbour, about his tractor not starting cause it sat for a year OUTSIDE. His neighbour(we put a clutch in his h last year) told us. So we go over and check it out after church on sunday, He said we could take it to get it going, so we towed it home on monday, bin tinkerin with it ever since. Here is what we have done. New spark plugs, New plug Wires, new distributor cap on mag, new tune up kit in mag.new kit in carburator. Once we took the mag to the old fella down the road, after some testing we found out the cap was no good. so off to J&M for a new cap. We got it timed, put the mag on and it ran. it ran for about 10 mins. So i shut it off. Later on my brother goes to start it, and it wouldn"t go, just backfires real loud out the muffler. So we check the timing, its good. Last night at tim hortons we were talkin bout it, and one guy said the carb could be sucking air, since the gasket between the two pieces was shot, So today my brother got a carb kit stuck it in there. Still now go. So after dickin with it for a long time, we go for a drive, come back and try again, so i take #4 plug out hold it close to the hole to triplecheck if we got spark, so my bro hit the switch, and i saw spark then it fired up and started to run, but i said to him to shut it off, probably should have let it run., So we tried again. No go. We are stumped! When it runs it runs good. What are we missing? The wiring is old and there are some bare spots, so i covered them with electrical tape. Should we rewire it, could it be shorting out somewhere and cause it to not start and backfire? This tractor is not going into town to the repair shop, we are bound and determinded to fix it ourselves. Sorry for the long post.
