Ok, Still looking for a new set of batts, where i get em they cant seem to keep 2 of the same CCA in stock, hopefully this weeekend. I charge the old 670 CCA to about 75%-85% charge that is all they will go. I crank engine for about 30 sec and they are both down to about 25% charge or less ( according to the meter on the batt charger, so I am assuming they are bad . Water levels were good, starter still cranks slow , as it it aint getting 12 volts. Voltmeter is DOA so i gotta pick one up with the batts. Well any way on to the starting. For sh's and gigg's I went out to see if she would start with out either, she was plugged in for about 3 hours or more. Put throttle at 1/4 pulled back the fuel shutoff to what is about 3/4 back and cranked after a few seconds she roared to life, I about shat myself, then she died just as fast as she roared to life and it would not start again. Let her sit for an hour same thing. I finally used the either to get her going so I can get here in the heated shop. ANY IDEAS WHAT GIVES. Also when she was running I pulled the fuel shut off/excess knob back slowly about mid way she started missing, about 3/4 ran smooter pulled all the way back and she was in a very high idle and running smooth as can be, To actually shut her down I have to pull that knob back ALLL the way to where it feels like I am stretching the cable and I have to do it fast or it will just go ibnto a high idle. What should be happening when and is it possible this pump/fuel lever/ timing is giving me all these starting probemss , Any advice will be very helpfull

Pitfalls of Tractor Engine Rebuilds - by Chris Pratt. The first pop after you have put the machine together with your own hands is exciting and pleasing. The whole experience can be marred if one moves too fast and makes too many assumptions that they can just use "as is" some parts they should be closely scrutinizing and possibly attended to. In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
