Hey guys,
I've posted a couple of times about my F12, maybe you remember the pictures and video.
I replaced the carburetor with a brass one that I cleaned up and rebuilt. The issue now is that I can't hand crank it. I pull started it, and after about 10-12 impulses it started and runs great!
I took the carb back off of the tractor and checked the gaskets to make sure that I didn't have an air leak, everything is sealed up tight now.
I have double checked the timing and everything looks good there as well.
I'm running it off of a jumper tank right now (not through the fuel pump), but it is getting plenty of gas.
The Mag is super hot, I can jump almost a full 1/2 inch with the spark.
I'm sure there could be several things to check, I'm just wanting to get this thing hand cranking again before I tear it all the way down to start painting.
