jocco,
Our JD B just doesn't want to start quite right... nor run as well as it used to.
Tried different hotter/deeper spark plugs - which did help it start.
But he's had this tractor for about 38 years. Since he initially rebuilt it way back then, it has always started with 1 or 2 tries and always ran great. He's done other work on it over the years, and had something done to it last year (I think it was the head - but I'm tired and just can't remember right now... he is not available to ask).

He's usually pretty mechanically savvy... but just can't put his finger on what the issue is this time.

It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix.
