I have had the same problem here. Went to look at a Ferguson 20 in 1986 belonging to a guy who worked in the same office as my brother. He told my bro that he had at least 4 car mechanics look at it and one or two tractor guys....could not get it to start. When I arrived he told me how it had been his father's tractor and always ran real good but after his father passed on it would not run. He was kinda angry at the tractor and said he wanted rid of the f---ing thing! I had a look and noticed the wrong firing order, turned the crank to see it was free and it nearly broke my arm! Agreed on £40 (about$55) Went home got the trailer, a battery and some petrol,arrived back and switched the leads before he came out of the house, fitted the battery, added the petrol and it started first go! He was as mad as h3ll....not at me though. He cursed all the guys that had worked on it into Hell and back out again!! We still use the tractor for small jobs on the farm to this day....And the children love driving it! Sam
