Gentlemen,
Here is the situation: Former owner says tractor has a hard time starting when its cold. Obvious Problems: Choke causes carb to flood easy, going to get a carb kit in the am.
Changed out all expendables in magneto except magneto winding. I am getting fire to ends of new plug wires. Will not start. It did try to backfire once with adjustment of magneto in center of adjustment. Also did try to reverse plug wires. Did set Tractor to #1 TDC, but rotor did not reflect #1 firing position.
I know we need to start back with the basics, but lets talk about it. What am I forgetting? by the way, it is hard to start when cold.
All of my other stuff is 12 V and distributor style. I also don"t understand how the magneto works with the kill switch like that.
Also could use a good wiring diagram, going to clean that up a bit too. It is positive ground 6V.
Thanks,
Brady
