I have done all I know to do on this machine. I am learning but here goes the whole story. I had the head off to clean and replace pitted valves. I bought the tractor from a owner who left the tractor outside without a raincap and water went in engine. I did get the rascal very cheap. The head is all I have had off the tractor. I put all valves back in (4 new intake valves, exhaust valves were in excellent shape), head on with new gasket, torqued to spec. Followed all instuctions in manual, rebuilt carb, new plugs,new points,new coil. Getting good fire on all plugs. Timed the distibuter to point directly at #1 at TDC firing position, followed firing order from there to connect rest of plug wires. The tractor will not hit a lick period not even spraying starter fluid in carb. AS I crank it over with starter sounds like its in a slight bind at times when turning over. The battery is new by the way and is 6 volt. The only time I can get anything is if I switch the plug wires around and then it just spits through the carb and somtimes spits a small flame out of the carb. I can not although smell any gas on the plugs at all, which I would think I could as many times as I have turned the tractor over. The carb is getting fuel. I am probally going to carry her to someone down the road that works on lots of IH tractors. I hate to because I wanted to accomplish this job. Thanks for the past posts fellows. If any other Ideas please let me know. GNB

I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
