After I replaced the points, the tractor had no problem pushing snow until the tires lost traction. I haven't tried plowing yet, but I might give that a try in the spring. Up 'til now, I've been pretty much a "replace the part" mechanic and started think about how much more I get out of the tractor if I knew how to tune it.
