Fuel is a gotta do thing. Fuel in the tank? fuel valve on? Strainer in carb inlet clean? float stuck? That should get fuel if looked into. Before going into the fuel and trying to start it, there are basic and important realities that need attention. There is a ridge that is formed where the top ring stops moving on the way up. That ridge is almost always big enough to break a new ring that is placed in contact with the ridge. Standard procedure is to machine that ridge out of the cylinder, then hone the bore and then put in new rings (they will make their own new ridge as the tractor is operated for 7000 hours). If the ridge was ignored that "tink" sound is desperate (or broken) rings. As noted below, there is no way to provide a reasonable valve seal with new guides and no re-seating of the valves to the seats. They never line up and maybe 3 of 8 would be functional. Cold setting of the valve lash is also not mentioned in your post. With the changes made, the lash will certainly be way off. Tell us more, we want to see this thing run and run well. Jim
