Used my Allis B just last Saturday to do some work and it ran well for nearly all the work I did with it. Getting later in the day and had just one more thing to finish and I stalled it. It"s a 42 with battery start but it needs electric work so it isn"t working and I have to crank it to start it. Cranking works well in the summer but by later fall things just don"t seem to work when starting it. I cranked till dark with just the occasional sputter but nothing. I had to leave it sitting where it was. I can"t get to it to pull it with the truck so that"s out. I also can"t get to it durring the week as I work well past daylight. So here"s the question. Is it ok on this old girl to use starter fluid to help get it going? Is it wise with crank starting? If not what else should I use? I"d like to get the old girl out of where it is and back in the barn so she can rest the winter out.
