Took the sled for a rip ran great went for a 2.5hr ride everytime I stopped to talk it would fire up no problem no choke
Than i stopped for about an hour and it cooled down than went to load it onto the trailer and no luck it wouldn't start?
Had spark sprayed alitle gas down the cylinder and boom fired up and stayed running
Should I install a primer seems like a common issue on john deeres
I put a new gas tank line with checkball and carb kit and fuel pump
What do you guys think?

It's a common issue but usually because they are flooding. You have the opposite problem. Did you use the choke when restarting after the long sit? If so and that didn't help then a primer may help out.

Ya I had the choke open without any throttle input but besides the random no start it runs beautiful and the plugs are perfect colourMatt wrote:It's a common issue but usually because they are flooding.
