the tractor cranks good after its cranked the first time that day. its only when i hold the starter on for a little while when its cold that it locks on and want quit spinning the engine over. the rest of the day its fine. i have had and do now have a lock out switch that you can turn a plastic key in and break the connection to the starter circuit by breaking the ground cable wire connection. if you give it a second to cool off normally it will let you go back and try recranking it. i had to put a front seal in the injector pump and have got the timing off a little bit and i need to reset that also. (any help on that problemn is apprecaited also. its been a while since i've tried setting that pump where you remove the side plate and line up the marks in there is the best i remember). i have ordered the yoke and am replacing the bushings in the starter. the bushing that i would call a mid shaft carrier bushing was worn out real bad. the starter also has been known to break the nose pieces off if you try cranking it and it doesn't start and you try to engage the key again before every thing stops spinning it will break the nose off the starter. i did put a streaight edge on the starter for as long a distance (about 5 inches) as i could and tried it in several places. i am putting new bushing in, new solenoid, and a new yoke. now if it doesn't acvt up i want know which thing fixed it. that will make me mad, but i sure don't want to take it on and off three or four times to find out. i do know that in the past if the battery wasn't real hot it would cause thsi problem, but with a new battery i still have the smae problem when it first cranked each day whether its a warm or cold or cold day. thanks for questions and inputs. if this post goes away before i find my problem i will repost. there's nothing i hate any worse than trying to help some body and never knowing what the problem was and if guys on these forums helped solve them or not. oh, yeah. i can do with out all caps too.

Today's Featured Article - Fabrication (Who Me? Make it myself?) - by Chris Pratt. First of all, what are the reasons for not fabricatin your own parts? Most judgements on what should be purchased rather than fabricated stem from: Originality - If the tractor restoration is to be 100% original, it is likely that you should spend the time and money to locate the component in the used or New-old-stock market.
