I own 2 560's. Both have their own characteristics when it comes to starting. My stock 560 will fire right off no matter how cold it is as long as i use the choke. Crack the throttle about a 1/4 and crank about twice with the choke on, it will fire off every time. Now... the 560 I have done engine work to is a different story. I have to open the main jet all the way, full choke, with the throttle all the way shut in order for it to even think about firing off. I leave it run for about 2 or 3 minutes with the fuel maxed out and then I'll close it off to where it usually runs at. I would say go through the carb and make sure that there isn't varnish built up on the main jet. Another thing is timing, valve settings, and type of venturi you are running in it. Best of luck!

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
