I was running tractor for a couple hours and then it just stopped running and wouldn’t start again it also had a Pertronix ignition,
I checked for spark and didn’t have any assuming the Pertronix went bad. Anyway I had another distributor that has new points and condenser gapped at 25 thousand set the flywheel at 26 degrees on compression stroke on 1 cylinder installed the new distributor and I’m having trouble getting the gears to mesh to point to the no.1 piston it goes down before and after I installed anyway and I have good spark but it will pop or backfire no matter how much I rotate the distributor what am I doing wrong?
Tested coil seems to be good, new plugs, plug wires are good I tried turning the oil pump to get distributor in the right direction but haven’t been successful.
Any suggestions I sure would appreciate it
Thanks in advance
