Hi Everyone
Help a feller out? Rehabilitating a 1974 Ford 5000 tractor. I can't recall the correct position for the choke when cranking her up? (admittedly the 'choke' lever in this case is some firm wire, but can't remember whether the choke should be to the 'front' when cranking or to the 'back') The last time she ran was Early November, but the climate temps here rarely fall below 17 degrees CELSIUS. Is it safe just to keep cranking? She has new oil in the case and a new battery. I have to fabricate a brace though as we fitted an alternator to be charging the battery. Any suggestions or ideas as to how to get her started would be MUCH appreciated.. Thanks!!
