In Reply to: ford 8n wont start and solenoid gets hot posted by ryan on Saturday, May 10, 2008:
My dad used to pull start the old ford jubilee if it wouldn't start after it had set all winter. It would always take off. You can try it. He always said if you got spark and gas it should start. If it don't start you don't have one or the other. These old tractors are really simple but still can be confusing. If you squirt some gas into the cylinder whith the plugs out then it should fire at least. Now if it don't fire then your spark to the plug isn't there or isn't hot enough to fire the gas. If it fires and stops then the gas is not getting there. Try that. Pull each plug and squirt in some gas and then put them all back in. Give her a whirl with the battery charger on hi charge.
