The spinning Bendix on the starter which did not engage the flywheel has been fixed. I removed the starter, turned the Bendix and heard a little 'click". Then I tested the starter with jumper cables from the 6 volt TO-20 battery. All appeared normal. The ring gear on the flywheel seemed in the right location. I replaced the starter and all sounded normal; strong cranking...BUT the tractor would not start. I had to remove the distributor to tip the starter out and I think I replaced it wrong, even though I marked where I thought it should go.
I am challenged with fixing the timing and also do have a Petronix electronic ignition. Is there a simple way to adjust the distributor correctly? I do have a mechanic who can help, but would rather try to make the repair without paying anyone.
Thanks for any help.
