856 - Fire

Hello - Any suggestions?

1) Yesterday evening, I sprayed some fuel and it cranked, but then it died. I tried multiple times, and then the spark was weak and smoky, and it wouldn't crank anymore. 

2) This morning, I turned the key and it turned and cranked.

 

I need to clean the carburetor.

Where can I get a choke cable?

Carb cleans on these tractors are pretty easy. Look at Wheel Horse Parts and More.com, I bet they have what you need.

Phan I would start by changing points condenser check to see if the plug wire is ok. Check your wiring  for loose and bad grounds. Also look for bad wires with exposed bear wires that may be shorting out. And of course rebuild a carburetor and I think it’ll fire it up and if you could do it, find yourself a good electric fuel pump like this one and you’ll be well on your way to enjoying the tractor for years to come.  I have this model it is my show putter. All day and you still have gas in the tank. As for the cables E-bay has them. Check for length of the old cable make it will be long enuf.
