Good news, the old tractor has been out there in the shop and running for about 30 minutes.
The new plugs, plug wires, and carburetor kit did the trick. It now starts on the second crank,
can't get too much beer drinking in when it starts like that. It was a fuel supply problem. I took the Napa fuel filter off, and it runs great. I love these old tractors, they may be frustrating from time to time, but they sure sounded good when they're running.
Tomorrow I'm going to hook up the hydraulics cylinders to the blade, and if all goes well. Tomorrow afternoon, I will be pushing some dirt.
This winter, I plan to repaint it. The gentleman I bought it from had it painted yellow like a caterpillar. She looks nice, but is not the right color.
THANKS A LOT FOR ALL THE HELP. I will keep you up-to-date. I will post some pictures later on after I get the old girl painted.
My next project is a 1950 John deere MC crawler that belong to my grandfather and has been sitting in the field for over 20 years. I will have to use the old T20 to pull it up to the shop.
I know you don't mention John deere on this site.
Or should I say, one of them green things.LOL
