A while ago I changed the coil on my 400, and life was good again. Twice it has started immediately and twice it was hard to start. Today it would not start. Swapped coils, swapped coil lead that goes to distributor and got a spark to ground. That lead had a splice in it. Each end piece showed a .3 reading with an Ohm meter, and the center showed a 1 on the left side of the display(digtal meter). Did I check that correctly?
Still would not start. Changed the condenser and she sings a happy tune again. Do condensers die a quick sudden death or do they break down and cause a few headaches along the way? Would that be why it was hard to start those two times? We have a 4H hayride this Sunday and I need this tractor to start!
