I just bought a 3010 from a fellow worker for 1600 dollars. It hasn't run in a couple of years and I need some information. I think this tractor was made in 63. Was all the 3010s 24 volt. This one has a 12 volt battery. I rebuilt the carburator and it seems to be working fine but now I don't have fire. The engine is spinning. What would be the logical first step to find out what my problem is. The tractor looks pretty good overall. What are the weaknesses of the 3010. thanks philip

Points, plugs, condensor, roter cap, dist cap, plug wires, coil wire. Replace them all. Set point gap, then dwell, then timing.

gas 3010's were 12 volt. The diesel was 24 volt. I agree, put in an electronic ignition. Well worth the cost.

Like was previously mentioned, you're probably looking at a point/condensor issue. I would install new plugs, wires and a cap. If you plan on keeping the tractor and want to eliminate ever having to mess with points again, I would recommend installing a Pertronix electronic ignition set-up (check with your local auto parts store). They're not terribly expensive and are easy to install, and the difference they make in starting and performance is amazing. They also allow you to open up your plug gap some for a better spark. Worth every penny.

A 3010 with a 24v electric system is a DIESEL. The gasoline and lpg models were 12v.

If it is turning over, but there's no spark, I'd check the distributor and coil. If the points are bad, a simple replacement of the points and rotor is a good first step. After that, I'd want to check the timing.

As for the strong and weak points of a 3010, they are a bit underpowered compared to the two cylinder tractors they replaced. The 8sp syncrorange tranny is a good solid unit, but with a lot of wear and age, some of the gears may disengage at will, or not engage at all.

These tractors are still very popular. If upgraded during overhaul to the 3020 specs, they are a pretty decent small tractor. They like gasoline a lot, however. The stock 3010 is about 55hp.
