I just purchased a WD45. According to the tractor's serial numbers, it is a 1953 model. The tractor seems to be missing on two cylinders. The plugs seem to be in good shape. I replaced the plug wires and distributor cap. The rotor and points look ok. When I take a screw driver and cross from the plug wires to the block,the two middle cylinders seem to be the only ones that make the engine start cutting down. I am not sure if I have a firing order problem. Is the #1 cylinder the one that is closest to the radiator. Which one is the #1 post on the distributor cap? Also, after it ran and warmed up, it looked like "frost" was building up on the carberator. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Might do a compression check, sometimes a valve can stick-

Timing marks are on the flywheel on the back (towards the rear) side, you have to remove the clutch pan to see them, at least I do. Just a T and an F.

You might try crossing those spark plug wires putting #2 on #3 and #3 on #2 and see if that helps. Also, It could be that those 2 spark plugs are bad? I wouldn't worry about the "frost". The other day I noticed that my AC-B did the same thing, I think that the "frost" has something to do with how cold it is out. Hope this helps, TractorMike

The firing order is 1243 on the WD45. #1 cylinder is the front one. My problem is that I cannot find the timing mark on mine. It is supposed to be on the flywheel but I cannot find it. Have you located the timing mark on yours? What does it look like?
