Ok I'm still stumped. Thought I had this thing figured out. It's a 3 cyl 4000 with SOS. So far all new plugs, wires, filters and gas. It has the Holley carb good compression all cylinders in the 180 range according to my gauge. Also put in a new 950cca battery. Now here is my latest issue. It will turn over what I'd call normally for about 10 seconds just long enough for it to hit once or twice but then quickly the starter begins to drag. The tractor is a row crop model. I have good spark at all 3 plugs and the coil jumps a 1/4 inch gap when tested alone. I have read about a disconnect lever. 1 what is it and 2 where is it. I'm a Ford newbie but nowhere near a tractor novice. The po is suppose to be getting the manuals soon
