I have drained the bowl of the carb from the petcock on the underside of the carb, so I know gas is in there. And yes, I did have gas dripping one time.
If I don't get it started before Sunday, I may be able to pull it. The snow has to melt here first... before I can move the tractor to where I can pull it, I don't want to mess up my yard.
Using a 12 volt source for a starting test (without the generator/regulator involved again) has crossed my mind. I was just hoping to get it running using the six volt system.

It's my understanding that I'd need to install a ballast resister between the battery and the coil (to protect the coil) if I test with a 12 volt battery.
Is there any reason I'd need to change to a negative ground for the test?
