Lanse, hasn't anyone described how to time that thing correctly? I am a Deere man so I wouldn't be the best person. Timing one isn't rocket science and should take less than ten minutes. Have you done a compression test to know all 4 cylinders are up to snuff, meaning the valves are doing what they are supposed to. If its got good spark and it gets there at the right time, it should run. Leave the air cleaner unhooked till you get the thing to run so you know its not an air cleaner obstruction keeping it from running. And my advice, leave the ether alone, that engine shouldn't need ether to spit. You might have to play with the throttle and choke when you are pulling it, you don't know how much slop is in the linkages so it might take some fiddling with. These old tractors aren't that hard to get running, you just need to listen to what the guys here are telling you.
