Hi everyone. Certainly some good suggestions here. Thank you. I went out to the garage this afternoon and after recalling some of these threads, decided to try a few different things to start my tractor. Cracked open the throttle about 1/3 and full choke after turning on the gas. Turned it over 3-4 times, nothing. Just cracked the throttle a little and no choke. Maybe 2-3 turns and it popped. Made a few adjustments and it started. I think it likes to have the throttle opened slightly and no choke. I thought that was very unusual seeing how it's a completely cold engine. Once it started and idled, I gave it a little more throttle and some choke. Once I got the rpm's to where I liked, I opened the choke all the way. I'm going to try this method again tomorrow and see what happens. As mentioned in a thread, these tractors are individual and have their own little quirkiness to them. It's just finding what that is. I did learn that you really have to have patience in warming these up, at least mine, before moving it. The previous owner also told me this. As a little side note, I bought a repair manual and parts book for my tractor. I always like to learn about them, how they work, before I bother anyone. I was interested in the carb. adjustment. The manual outlined this procedure real well. If I understand it, you know it's simple. At this time, I don't have an interest in adjusting the carb. I just want to drive the tractor, have fun with it, and we'll see where this takes me. Many thanks to all, Nicholas C.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
