Like Fawteen says "if it ran when parked" Avoid taking the mag off if you don't understand much of how it works. Try brightening the points with a point file you may be lucky enough to just drag a dollar bill through the points to clean them a bit. Again like Fawteen says Pull it or belt it to another tractor to start the first time. I prefer belt. It will allow you to play with the carb and mag somewhat if you belt start it. The belt will run straight between the two tractors as an F-12 belt pully runs reverse of most others. Are you used to cranking a tractor? If not find a buddy that is and he'll show you how to retard the spark a bit to help keep you from breaking your thumb or head. All your fingers(thumb too) on one side of the crank and avoid spinning the crank if you can.
Have fun. Those are neat little tractors! I've owned a couple 12s and two 14s. Fun! Fun!!
