Are those the original colors? Never saw one with yellow as you have it.
Briggs has no spark.

the rims and the fenders are the orginal J.D. yellow but the hood and seat I thought I would do them in yellow also to give it a different look.

That starter button bracket is screaming for paint.

yeah as soon as I get the throttle adjusted the first thing I do will be to pull the starter braket off and paint it up. Only thing left is to get the idle set up right and put the belt cover and decals.DONE

ok got the tractor back togethernow. I got the motor running but I cannot get the idle down to where the motor will not cut off. It will run wide open but then when I pull the throttle down it chokes out. I rebuilt the carb so I know that is good. Here is the deal I can unhook the throttle cable and hold the tractor running by hand and it will stay on. I ordered new springs for the car linkage because I noticed alot of play while the throtle cable was moving., I would have to move the throttle cable about a inch and a half before the linkage would even move and then would just fall down and choke out. Any thoughts on this?

Well that's real purty! Is it a Christmas present for some lucky codger?
Maybe your throttle rod that holds the air plate is loose in its bore in the carb. When you hold it by hand you move it in/out a little and close off the extra air, but the cable lets too much in??? Just guessing.
Anyway nice work, and nice to see the old girl fixed, not scrapped.

Yeah I checked the orginal manual and I have the spring in the wrong place. It is getting too much air so that is the problem.
