Howdy Guys, Well, I've been putting the 8N through it's paces, and so far she's done okay. However, this afternoon, while plowing, something weird happened. I've been (attempting) to plow up a garden area with the tractor. The soil is great, but full of rocks, so it's rough going. So, I'm doing the best I can. Well, as far as I'm concerned, the 8N has been kicking butt, and has seemed to run real strong. Of course, many times it stops in the middle of a tough run, and I have to raise the plow, and start again. Today, though, it stalled out on me, and here's what happened: I went to restart thae tractor, which it did almost immediately. I throttled up about halfway, and was letting her get her legs back underneath her for a moment. Then, I was about to continue plowing. So, I gave her the gas, and it "bogged out". (It's never done that before). So, I did it again, with the same result. It would seem to putt along fine until I throttled it up, and then it just died (Sputtered first). So, I kept restarting it, and it the same thing kept happening. So, then, I tried something....I tried giving it gas while I had the choke pulled out....and it worked! I was able to get up enough "R's" at that point to get it out of the garden area. I could go all the way up on the throttle, and it wouldn't die as long as the choke was pulled out. But, the instant I pushed the choke back in, it would sputter, and die. I don't know what happened to my good running 8N all of a sudden :( I need help. I've got to get this puppy running right, and quick. I have so much to do! -Thanks, Bob
