I have managed to do a lot of maintenance which had gotten ahead of me. So, taking one thing at a time I bought a set of points. Before installing the new points I decided to check the gap on the ones in the tractor. They were set at .010-.012! They are supposed to be at .025”. I reset them at the proper gap and it seemed to run better so I went to a steep hill nearby in third gear at idle and it went right up with no sputtering. Happy here!
