My goal when I started working on the B was to try to make it as reliable a tractor as our M has been over the last 4-5 years. I wanted it to start right up and work all day and I just don't feel like I am there yet. I have gotten it to start every day but not always quickly and it donesn't always run smoothly. On a good day it fires in 2-3 cranks and runs without smoke like it did yesterday AM. In the PM yesterday it would not start at all and began to crank kinda slow. I put the battery on to charge and it DID start after a couple trys today but I was not pleased with the way it sounded. Seems to run just a little rough and I am seeing some smoke. It did this day before yesterday, then ran smooth yesterday and now it is back at it. Can't put my finger on what the problem might be. Why did the battery start to go? Why rough one day with smoke and smooth/smokeless the next? You guys know the history. Any direction I should head in first? Thanks guys!
