Regarding an earlier discussion, this tractor had been converted to a 12 volt system. Because the tractor was turning over but not starting, all wiring was checked, battery was charged,points, plugs,rotor button changed but no luck in starting. Upon checking the coil I discovered it to be a 6 volt.Changed the coil to 12 volt and after a few cranks the tractor fired up. After about 20-30 seconds the tractor stopped and would not start until it had sat for awhile, but after several cranks only ran for a few seconds. Flooded? Is there a trick in using the choke? Used the choke on a motorcycle for years to start and opened up full, once started the choke was closed halfway until warm and then closed. Thinking of taking Gerry's advice and replacing the old starter. Any other suggestions are most welcome.

Marty: I have to agree with dig... I do not use the choke to start and keep the throttle closed during starting. Then you begin to open the throttle and give a little choke. On and off with the choke to keep it running. Also, I think if I remember right the carb mixture screw ( idle mixture )is for air not fuel. So if you moved it, reverse your thinking. Turn it out for more air, to lean. In for less air and to richen. Good Luck..

Marty - tractors seem to have some personality quirks related to starting. Dig responded that he does not even use the choke while to start my Jub, I set the throttle about 1/3rd to 1/2 way down the quadrant and hold the choke out while I hit the starter. Generally starts on first revolution. I only choke for the first couple of revolutions otherwise it floods. If you pull the tube between the carb and the air cleaner, gas will run out if it is flooded. By setting the throttle to full open and cranking, you can clear the flooding and the engine will start. Last week the tractor did not want to start and I flooded it. I noticed it was slowing on each crank so I checked the battery. I had a loose connection on the ground. Cleaned it up and tightened it down and she started right up. Mine is a 6 volt so it needs all the available juice to crank, jump the points and fire the plug. You might want to check your battery and connections. Also, are you sure you are getting a good flow of gas to the carb? It might be worth while to check your points again to make sure the 6 volt coil in your 12 volt system didn't burn the points. Also might try replacing the condensor - they can cause some problems. Also, check the little brass ground strap between the point set and the body of the distributor. Last electrical thing would be to bypass the key switch. Good luck!

On my NAA you can't use the choke at all to start it. If you do it either won't start or else will run on 1 cylinder for a few seconds then kill. When it kills you have to let it sit for half an hour before trying to start it again. Without the choke it will turn over 3 or 4 times then start and run all day.
