Putters and quits

Postby Rockarranger » Sat Jan 31, 2015 5:05 pm

Newbie with 51 Cub. Haven't learned its language yet but it has me on the troubleshooting fast track. Runs great, quits after 1/2 hour. Can't get my garden plowed that way.

I suggest running it until it stops , then check for spark, if no spark the coil is probably breaking down and when it cools the coil will "heal" and the tractor will run again through the same cycle.
