Re: jdx6 not running on 1 cylinder
Weclome aboard, are you from Harrisburg Pa.? You really should buy a service manual for your sled, they are still available as a reprint from JD. Clymers had a manual that shows up on Ebay.
Since your engine has points, did you clean and regap both sets, there are 2.

That's where we need to start you. Once you have read that, it gives us a place to start.
The most often seen problem is points that have corroded, and no longer pass current.
These sleds are so old now, you really need to go completely through the fuel and electrical systems in order to make them run reliably.
Have fun!
