Hi Bob, Thanks for your reply. The pony sits on the centerline of the tractor, directly behind the engine, so that the rope pull faces aft, and is just forward of the operator's feet. Spark plugs are on either side of the tractor, pointing straight out horizontally. I'll look at the locations you suggested, and send some photos early next week. Is JPEG format OK? I'm currently in the process of buying this tractor now. The engine sounds fine, and doesn't smoke except for just a second after startup, and the oil pressure is good. The current owner says the steering and engine clutches and the pony motor have been newly rebuilt. He's asking $5000 for it; does this sound reasonable? Also, I'm most interested in a copy or copy of a copy of the parts book. I'm a good mechanic, but all my experience is on lighter machines; a parts book would be a huge help.
