Several people posted about starting problems on gas tractors. Not very shocking there were several people who gave them info to help them out. Folks on here are very good about that. I had a hard starting gas tractor here with 2 others that started very well. The 2 others I had converted to 12 volt and rewired both tractors. This other one I really didn't do anything to it just put up with the hard starting issues, was converted to 12 volt when I got it. I was going to rewire it the other day but got rained out. Well today I got on it. I know the wiring wasn't great but I didn't realize it was that bad. Anyway once it was done it popped right off like it should while it was cranking instead of only when you let off the starter button.
So guys with stating problems check everything out. I'm pretty sure the PO converted this tractor to 12 volt because of starting problems. A lot of times 12 volt will make em start like new but unless you correct any other problems it's only masking those issues.
