Dave: In addition to what Hal has said, think about the possibility of ice in the carb. My 130 has done this 3 or 4 times this winter. Had the carb off twice couldn't find anything wrong. It's not coil as it fires right up within seconds. Acts as though fuel supply is restricted. I also notice I'm getting a slow buildup of water in the sediment bowl.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
