I have been having trouble getting my SC to start consistently. Once started it runs perfectly normal. I have had this tractor about 15 years and use it year around. It has always been a easy starter. It is converted to 12 volts. About a year ago it would not want to start so I put a tune up kit in it, points, plugs and condenser. It didn't help. Summer came and it was back to easy starting. This winter back to hard starting. It will crank over and hit on one cylinder which is enough to disengage the starter and then die. Today I cranked it over for a few seconds with the ignition switch off, chock on, throttle wide open. I was thinking this would help prime the cylinders with gas. I then turned on the ignition moved the throttle back to 1/3 open and it started right up. Again once started this tractor runs great. Give it 30 seconds to warm up in cold weather and runs like a champ. Any ideas what to look at? I am thinking carburetor but what could be wrong that effects starting but not running? Thanks for the help.
