A friend came over to help me yesterday since I only have 1 good arm now and am still hurting in the back and tail bone areas. He wants to get the F-12 going so bad so after soaking the motor for two weeks with the plugs out we gave it an extra tug on the crank and over she went. Now how much cleaning out of the cylinders should I do before trying to start? We turned it over a lot while putting in small amounts of mystery oil and it seems to be smooth with no rough places in the strokes. Also am totally ignorant on the setting of the rod which controls the spark on the rear of the mag. My friend touched the plug wire while checking and got one heck of a jolt. Sorry about these elementary questions but this tractor was before my time and the manuals are not ordered yet and we are trying to make our annual show here on August 3-6. Thanks for your help.
