Yes it is a mag. We do hear the snap sometimes but it is hard to tell where it occurs as we turn the engine slowly over. The mag is an IH mag. It does start ok and run ok with the mag set all the way to retard. If we come off the fully retarded position it will not start. We are starting with a starter not a crank. We are checking the timing because we had a problem with the tractor overheating. We also found the head gasket leaking so that is in the process of getting fixed now. I though I'd find out everything I could about the timing. Thanks for the info. I'll try again and see if I can see where it's occuring. It still seems that I shouldn't have to be all the way to retard to get it to run. That's the only reason I think something isn't right.
