Hi Jack,
The trouble with those big frame tractors is that ya can't pull 'em down the road at 15-20 mph to start 'em. :>(
Does that old sister have an engine heater? If it does, plug 'er in for 4 hours to get it darned good and hot, pump it up tight with that manual fuel primer and with a monster set of a batterys, give it another try. If you can get it to spinning at a real good clip, it "might" run.
