    I have a 48 front mount with 12v. I installed a pentronix. I have good spark at the plug and I good flow of gas from the bottom of the carb. I pulled the air hose and after pulling the choke see fuel come out by the choke/hose. The tractor chugs like it wants to start and sometimes very briefly...

    8N wont start cont.

    I filled ATF in each cylinder per a suggestion from Dell in the forum. The only problem is when I cranked the engine without the plugs the ATF did not come out.
