My '49 H model with magneto and 12 volt is prone to flooding if it does not start immediately. You must have a good battery as well as other fresh electrical components. Remember your FACS--fuel, air, compression and spark.
My procedure to start:
1) turn on the fuel 1a) clamber onto tractor 2) transmission in neutral and set the brake if you are so inclined 3) magneto switched on 4) 1/2 trottle 5) ambient below 50° choke out full--if the ambient is 50° or higher I just try to start it without the choke--if it doesn't start, then I use the choke 6) clutch pedal pushed in, hand on the choke rod, and hit the starter button for no more than a couple of seconds, easing the choke in until it fires 7) if it fires, continue to ease the choke in, or out, until things smooth out 8) as soon as it starts to smooth out, be sure to keep an eye on the oil pressure gauge--it may take a couple of seconds but OP should build right away 9) if it does not fire, try again 10) if it floods, shut down and try again a little later
