I have heard of pull starting the main and using the running engine to start the pony. The guy who told me said "it grinds like hell but you can get in gear."

Today I went out and started my tractor again. The pony was being difficult. I think maybe the cylinders were a bit too wet. It just didn't want to start with all the pulling I was doing.
I think, maybe, if I spend a little more time letting the cylinders dry out maybe I would have gotten it to start, but I ended up doing something different.
When my 4R pony doesn't start by the 3rd or 4th pull I've learned to clean the spark plugs. starts 1st pull after cleaning.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
