    Welcome to the forum, Let's go. Norton Ghost or the likes WILL cure all of that data loss thing. Applications which are worth their weight in GOLD :)

    Gassing up your tractor

    Wow.. I have let my SCCA race car fuel (it is just 91 octane pump gas) sit for 2 years and noticed zero performance loss. The car starts as if it were just parked and shut off so though fuel can degrade over time I am kind of surprised to see that in your post. Personally, I have only had...

    Flushing fuel tank

    Interesting. Last time it was a couple of 4" strips of this stringy, thin, translucent nylon tape looking stuff. It was NOT rust. It looked a lot like dental floss... as if someone had wrapped the threads to the output with some teflon tape or something. I have read the 50tips many times...

    Flushing fuel tank

    Well it seems my dieing issue is fuel related. I cleaned it out last fall and it poured a solid stream after I was done so I thought I was good to go. 20 hours later I have the same drip drip issue and it is the petcock or inlet screen at the base of the tank that is clogged. Will drain...

    12 volt question

    wow.. ok then. I guess I can drive it for 20 minutes and whine about it to anyone that asks why I get off of it after 20 minutes. At some point, one has to ask themselves: "DO I just get rid of this since I cannot get much help online". I feel like it is a glorified Briggs engine.. It came...

    My new coil is installed correctly, then. whew.. :/ now onto why it might still be dieing after 20 minutes of use.

    12 volt question

    thanks, DollarBill I does have an alternator but there is a normal automotive type insulat4ed ground going from the battery negative post to the frame. If that is a 'Negative Ground' I can presume that the '+' post of the coil does go to the ignition switch, then?

    12 volt question

    But I have had about 1 hour 20 minutes of total run time, today. Running for less time that it ran before I put in the new coil, now (15 minutes). Perhaps I am not to connect '+' to the ignition switch?

    12 volt question

    .025 it is. :) Ok then: Installed the new resistor-less coil this morning and by golly after about 45 minutes... it started surging and wanting to die so I decided to stop. I am thinking the carburetor needs adjusting since it only runs with the choke pulled all the way? To wit: A...

    12 volt question

    Thanks again, JMOR. Yea I meant to type 'resistor-less coils'. I found a supposed O'Reilly counterpart to that Carquest E40 coil you mentioned. They stated their number as 2-5025. 26.99 for house brand. 33.99 for a Borg-Warner. *This was a direct cross reference by telephone and the...

    12 volt question

    103 years is simply TOO long to be on the JFK!! ^^ I was land based in Texas, billet # 8215 Search and Rescue.. I did land on the Lex once in the gulf for a medivac but I went EAOS in '85 rather than go to sea for three years. ;) I am hoping the picture helps you guys determine what the...

    12 volt question

    Thank you for the fast reply! Aha! My bad it says 8N-B right on it. Memory here is not so great, apparently. Obviously, I really do not know a lot about this one. This is where I messed up.. the new one says "resistor required", but I saw no resistor on the tractor and put it on anyhow. I...
