Hi Guys, With my 60 still not running since about 3 months ago when it DID run strong, I've started out my process of elimination by removing all the old gas & putting in new with stabilizer....still won't fire up. I've put new plugs in too. Once I saw the gas filling the bowl as I was cranking I figured it would fire soon....but no go...not even an inkling. I've got some things I purchased that I never got a chance to put in but now will start doing so. I removed the distributor cap & was expecting to be looking straight at the points & condenser. Instead I was looking at a plate as shown in picture. I'm not familiar with this. I've replaced points on cars many times in the past when I was younger & we could actually do some of our own backyard mechanical stuff. Are the points directly behind that plate? I've got new points & condenser to put in but am curious what that plate is all about. Thanks for any help. I'll try to keep posting with my progress as I eliminate possibilities. I guess my next step after either checking the points or replacing them & the condenser would be to put the new distributor cap, rotor on. Am I supposed to put the special electrical grease on the rotor end for better contact?

Today's Featured Article - Madison's County - by Anthony West. Philip Madison has been a good friend of mine for quite some time. He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
