Ok - Drained fluids and refilled in all 4 compartments, re-oiled air cleaner, cranked it over with a 12 volt battery while my 6 volt was charging. (just attached to the starter lead and a ground). A bit of moisture came out, then I got my air line and shot it in the spark plug holes while spinning the engine. This seemed to really expel the moisture. It would mist back out at me as the piston came up. Finally stopped misting anything, but I can't really say each bore is fully dry. I put new plugs back in gapped at 25/thousanths, checked one to make sure the plug was firing ( it was). Then I shot some ether in the throat of the carb, key was on ...... nothing. Any ideas? Would alcohol help dry the bores more? This tractor was always slow/hard to start as it was. I have an electronic points replacement I was planning on installing, but I think I want to get it to run before I create another item to troubleshoot.
