A little background:
When my Dad got it in the early 80's, it was a bull. It has a loader and we used it quite a bit. I used it to clean up from the blizzard of '93. When I went to use it again, it would not start. Not long after my Dad passed, my brothers went their own way and the equipment sat. Well, it sat until January of this year, 22 years OUTSIDE. There are so many issues with it. Some I have been able to handle, some are continuing to pester me. I have so far only been able to start it by jump starting it. I cannot seem to fire it off using the starter. I have overhauled the carb, put in basically a new electrical system and cleaned from the gas tank down. When it runs it runs just like it used to, but I just cannot get it to start using the starter.
Any ideas?
