Re: Ignition / distrubutor problems??
GO TEAM JDCRAWLER!!! I didn't really think a bad plug would give such sporadic firing (I would have thought it would either work, not work, or be weak, not intermittent), but lo and behold, the new spark plug on the #1 cylinder fixed it. Thanks for reminding me on checking the simple things first. F...

Re: Ignition / distrubutor problems??
Thanks for the insightful responses!
Yes, as I was typing up my question, I realized I had not changed the plugs as part of my troubleshooting. I will change them out this weekend coming up, no time this past Easter weekend, and post back on good or bad results.

The track throwing does not make sense to me either. I would think there would be less chance of throwing the track in reverse because you are pulling the track around (allowing it to follow) rather than pushing it? Any case, I understood to limit your reverse travel (especially over uneven ground) ...

My 440 rebuild
When I was a wee lad, my dad and I would go out hunting and we would find ourselves on some logging cut-block trail. He mentioned more than a few times that he would love to have a small dozer with levers and foot pedals and he could fool around with and build some trails of his own. Well, flash for...
