jocco,
Our JD B just doesn't want to start quite right... nor run as well as it used to.
Tried different hotter/deeper spark plugs - which did help it start.
But he's had this tractor for about 38 years. Since he initially rebuilt it way back then, it has always started with 1 or 2 tries and always ran great.

He's usually pretty mechanically savvy... but just can't put his finger on what the issue is this time.
