G'day, I am from Western Australia and have just become the proud owner of an AOS6(princely sum of $45Aus). Like most people I thought that it would be a piece of cake to get the beast going and to restore it to former glory. Yeah I know , stupid idea. My problems are the following: 1. The previous owner took about 1 minute to start the tractor and after a bit of tweaking it ran sweet with no smoke or knocks .I can't get it to start other than the odd 3 or 4 seconds of firing before it stops. Using Airostart has no better result even though it should do. 2.The carbi floods without the slightest hesitation even though I pulled it to bits and made sure it was functioning.Is there a solution? 3.Wiring looks to be functioning, distributor cap has previously been cracked and glued together but I pulled a spark plug lead and copped a boot when the motor was cranked so appears to be working. Should I replace disi cap anyway? 4. Can't seem to find neutral even though can apparently change gears using gear shift lever. Does the thing have to be in neutral to start? 5. Can I pull start it using a vehicle and if so what should I have the gears in , is there a high/low range ? Sorry for the size of the message but I am really keen to get it going and it is frustrating not being able to.
