Hey folks. I worked on the tractor tonight, finally, and I siphoned the old gas out of the tank and also drained it from the carb. The tank is surprisingly very very clean. Put fresh gas in and let the plug out of the carb bowl to get fresh gas down the line. Plugged it back up and waited a little bit for the bowl to fill up. Put the new battery on and cranked the tractor. She turned over a few times and popped for a split second. I thought wow this thing might actually fire! After several starting attempts I fianally got her to run but she sounds like a hit and miss engine and then shuts off. I have done this several times thinking it was just some bad gas still but she is still sputtering. She will run about 20 seconds and die. I took a short video clip of it running but I'm not sure how or if I can upload a video to the forum. Any suggestions? Is this a fuel issue or does the problem lie elsewhere? When I give it a little throttle it kills the tractor and will also not start unless throttle is all the way down. This is as far as I have gotten. I haven't pulled plugs or anything electrical yet. Thanks for your help!
