Tried ether, no go. Tried warming intake air with hair dryer ( what the heck) no go. Took out air filer, sprayed more ether, no go. Got a crank case heater on engine now, will try again tomorrow. Beginning to think this is compression issue. Has to be right? How can we determine this easily. We don't want to loosen any bolt from 1960's if we don't have to. I don't want to make this worse by breaking glow plug, injector, ect... Speaking of glow plug, We ohm cked one, and it was bad. I suspect the all are bad. They are all orginal to tractor. Good power to them. I didn't want to start pulling wires off things just yet. Anything not fulled with since the tractor was new is more or less frozen tight. Tractor is not used much, my father in law is in early 70's and if we can't fix this ourselves, I suspect this tractor will become a barn fixture. I love this tractor myself, and want to see it going. Maybe more than my father in law. PS One of the last time we used it, it just quit running while driving. We got it running again, and took it up to the barn. It has sat since then.
