Hello all,
While troubleshooting some ignition issues, I found that my H didn't seem "normal". After some research, I found a thread with the below quote from mkirsch:
Currently, the distributor is turned with #1 at the 11:30 position instead of at the 1:30 position, and it is wired (starting @ 1:30) 3, 4, 2, 1.
That is how my tractor is setup.... I guess some previous owner thought that Cylinder 1 was towards the back. Anyway, I don't think that is contributing to my ignition problem, but I'm wondering if it is worth correcting?
It ran like this for who knows how long but changing it may avoid any future confusion...
any suggestions are welcome.
thanks!

Now to confuse things: If you decided the REAR cylinder was #1, and timed the ignition to the rear cylinder at top-dead-center on the compression stroke, it would still run just fine.
