My father in law is having an issue with his D15. Takes a bit to start her up (harsh winter in eastern canada) but she will idle no problem when started. When I go to move it she will either stall out or go for a bit then quit. Takes a bit to get it started again but same thing will happen. I took the carb off to check the float and how it looked inside, and cleaned it, all seems ok. Any other suggestions? Ignition? Fuel supply?

It was a bad coil. Running like a charm. Thank you all!

Check the air breather, have had it get water in in the summer. Cold weather freezes water causing a blocked air breather.

Winter time use of those gas tractors usually requires opening up the carb main jet one or two full turns. This should be done first. It also requires having the choke pulled out about half-way until it runs for a few minutes. When's the last time it had spark plugs and points ????????????????

It could very well be icing once running.
When was it last given a complete and proper (by the manual) tune-up with quality parts? Has the fuel flow been checked (remove the bowl plug from the carb and see how long it takes to fill a pint jar)? Parked inside or outside? Battery condition? Stater and wiring condition? Types and weights of oils in it? These all can also enter into starting and stalling when first moving issues.

I cleaned the spark plugs up and ordered new ones. Went back last night and had removed the air filter earlier in the day to thaw it out in case that was the issue, installed everything and started up no problem. I was poking around while she was running and tapped the coil and she quit, started it up again and tapped it again and it quit. So I’m assuming this is my problem. Any chance the wire to the distributor goes bad before I order a new coil?

Restoration Story: 1929 McCormick-Deering 10-20 - by Randal Simmon. On July 4th 1998 my dad and I was sitting on the front porch when he said that he was going to sell his two 10-20's to a junk man. He said that the junk man was going to give him $500 for both of them but he hadn't received the money for them yet. So I went into the house and wrote him a check for $500 and bought them myself and said now they are mine. He had bought them about five years before thinking that he was going to restore them himself. After five years sitting in the barn, he changed h
