Howdy,
I parked my M over a year ago when I had heart surgery. Got some stumps to pull out from recent storm damage. The M is parked in tight in a storage building I rent space in. I figured I'd better see if it will start before trying to get things moved out of the way. It won't start, I need some expert advice (educated guess). I had a charger on it for 5 hrs today, spins over good, won't fire. It has some junk in the sediment bowl, gas flowed into bowl when valve opened. The issue I'm worried about is the switch box/ammeter gauge is so hot I can't touch it. It was hot before I tried cranking the tractor over, no wires are hot or smoking except the ground cable. Sorry about the long post, but I thought I'd give as much info as I could. I can barely squeeze in to work on it and it has a loader, so I have to work on it where it is.
Thanks
Bob S.
