Hi guys, i"m new to the forums but have browsed a while, and could not find the answer to my issue. I have a 1948 Ford 8N - with the front mount distributor. Was converted over to 12 volts years ago, runs/charges fine with no issues. This tractor is new to us. The only problem i can see is that the engine will only fire up and run AFTER the starter button is released. If you hold the button it will crank all day and never start, but crank for a few seconds and let it go, and she fires up every time. What could cause this problem? Like i"ve mentioned before, the tractor runs great, no issues with the charging system or anything like that.
You hardly ever have to use the choke, it just starts right up, but ONLY when you let go of the OEM starter button. Thanks for your help
