936039 Hydro Tractor. Turns over but why won't it start?
I've replaced battery, spark plug, fuel filter, and air filter. Bought it used. Probably about 5yrs old. Another model description would be 936039 46 Precision Hydro Tractor.
You need to physically check the requirements for starting are being delivered into the cylinder.
An engine needs a good supply of fresh fuel to be delivered in the correct quantity into the cylinder which then needs to be compressed and then fired by a good strong spark at the right time.
Fuel, compression, timing and spark. If all those are present and the engine cranks quickly enough it will start. As it is not starting one or more of those things is absent or faulty.
If the plug is getting wet with fuel after cranking it could be getting too much (flooding) or it could indicate absent or insufficient spark. It is partly a process of elimination and partly the testing of components and process and partly being a detective.
Do you think the valves need adjustment? If so, how do i do that? I tried searching on YouTube and nothing specific or similar to my rider.Do you think the valves need adjustment? If so, how do i do that? I tried searching on YouTube and nothing specific or similar to my rider.
