52 8N side mount 12V cranks up good but after about 20 mins og bush hoging it sputters like running out of gas and quits. After about an hour cranks and runs just enough to limp back to tractor shed SIL says coil bad so replace, same thing again, clean the filter going to tank and carb, they were clean but cleaned anyhow, Same thing again, Took carb off and cleaned and blew out jets and replaced back on tractor, Tractor then would turn over good but would not hit at all, Pulled cap off distr. and the points was closed. Reset at 25 and the 8N didnt turn over half a round and fired up and purred like a kitten. I was about ready to pull my hair out but it was so good to hear it running so well. Just thought i would share this with you all. James
