WACO, This is an ol trick I learned on JD LPs a looong time ago.
I am sure you cut the Liquid & Vapor valves off after you use it. Even at lunch!
Now.....While cranking the engine, open the vapor,...Now take your free hand, and osolate the steering wheel back and forth about 1/4 turn, rapidly! She should start!
I not sure why it works exactly, but I have never seen it not work on those old Deeres.
This trick should eliminate the need for ether in all but the dead of winter here in Cen-Texas.
What it does is releave the hydrolic pressure when cranking I think. Hope this helps.
Later,
John A.
