Hello all - New to the site, just brought home an '87 310-8 '86 312-A yesterday. So far, no start, no crank no click. For now please consider what it means when I hold the test switch and see all lamps lit except for the oil lamp which is blinking. Regarding that blinking can someone tell what that should tell me? Any other comments about what to expect form the lamps would be helpful. Page 5 of Tractor_1986_200-300-400_OM_810399R1.pdf mentions the lights but I'm not seeing it addresses what the blinking means in this case. Thanks all!

My 1988 520-HC (I did get lots of snow that's an old picture) starts up great at first but after running it awhile it will not start back up. It cranks over fine it just does not start. I sprayed starting fluid in the carburetor and that does not help. When I let it sit for a few hours and come back to it, it starts up fine. Today I was cleaning up some snow and it worked great while it was running. I ran it out of gas earlier today and when I filled it up it did not start until a few hours later. I put it back in the shed when I was finished with it and when I shut it off I tried starting it back up in a couple minutes and it did not even attempt to fire up. Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong with it?
