David: It sounds as though the starter drive is not engaging on the ring gear. Correct me if wrong, but I'm reading your post as though starter is spinning and not turning the engine over.

If your tractor has the old type Bendix starter drive, those have been troublesom over the years. The Bendix gave trouble usually by the time the tractor was 5 years old. Most Of us have changed these tractors to a clutch type starter drive, available only at CaseIH. It's close to 15 years since I bought one, thus that may have changed, and they are available other places. I changed my tractors about 15 years ago and neither starter has been off the tractors since. I can't remember using the hand crank since, I don't even carry them on the tractors anymore. I've neve had an IH starter lock up since.
