In the spring, I need to do a complete tune up. I wonder if I can find a solid state ignition for this? Points are a pain in the neck.Dave Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00521055331641320893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-75212293079899583292013-12-14T15:38:23.514-05:002013-12-14T15:38:23.514-05:00Hay Dave-- Do you get a nice hot spark "Blue ...Hay Dave-- Do you get a nice hot spark "Blue Spark @ .30 Gap"??<br />I know you're a smart man-- Could Bessie's Coil be weak??Hudson River Boaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08828106802395669814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-3704012345648321462013-12-14T15:12:28.539-05:002013-12-14T15:12:28.539-05:00No offense taken, Bill.

I took a ride down the mountain to Tractor Supply and bought new spark plugs and that did the trick. It started hard, but it started. The problem that I have now is that the hydraulic shift lever is frozen so I can't lift the plow. It's 13 degrees here at 3 PM. Tomorrow it will be in the 20s, and I'll try to thaw it with hot water.Dave Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00521055331641320893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-79977679559237124392013-12-14T15:00:41.225-05:002013-12-14T15:00:41.225-05:00Sorry Dave, sometimes I say and type things before...Sorry Dave, sometimes I say and type things before I think. :((<br /><br />Bill KelleherBill Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00912599099774634267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-25702228166382858832013-12-14T13:48:09.481-05:002013-12-14T13:48:09.481-05:00Come on Bill-- Give Dave more credit than that not...Come on Bill-- Give Dave more credit than that not to already know that!!<br /><br />I would first check for spark from the coil to the distributer myself-- I'm sure Dave knows that too...Hudson River Boaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08828106802395669814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-2373997012431867072013-12-14T10:01:51.922-05:002013-12-14T10:01:51.922-05:00So pretty at the cabin..

Our balsam fir is festooned with goldfinches, chickadees and titmice at the moment. Maybe we'll relent at the last minute and find one for indoors to cheer us along -- that glow combined with the snow outside would be pretty rapturous.Katrinkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698901451632863936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-12895030854208128612013-12-14T08:08:50.234-05:002013-12-14T08:08:50.234-05:00If no pop on tractor check for spark at spark plug...If no pop on tractor check for spark at spark plugs.<br /><br />Bill KelleherBill Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00912599099774634267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175895587229052204.post-87190090140170263922013-12-14T07:54:54.516-05:002013-12-14T07:54:54.516-05:00It's all beautiful, nice pics.It's all beautiful, nice pics.Rick, Deb and Izzy aboard M/V Brouleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05626674831490087689noreply@blogger.com
