    Hydra Mac Mitey Mac 8B

    Okay, sorry for the long time. It turns on, runs for about 4 seconds, and it only runs on one cylinder. One cylinder is wet when we pull the plug out, and the other one is dry. What would cause this, and what would cause it to run in one cylinder? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Okay, ANOTHER problem. Go figure. We are getting ABSOLUTELY NO spark at all anymore, so how would I be able too check if the coil were bad? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks! And if it would be anything else, im in for suggestions.

    Oh. I just got word that it's the ignition switch. He held the key in the start position, and it ran for a good minute. So, we have to get a new ignition, and hopefully it'll work.

    Okay. So we JUST replaced the fuel, and the same thing. It runs a little better in those 5 secs now, but it's still doin the same thing. Also, do you know how to adjust the hydrostat drive control? Everytime it turns over, it wants too creep forward or backward. Thank

    Okay, so we got that problem fixed. We didn;t have a wire hooked up right. But now, it turns over, starts, runs for about 5 secs and turns off again. I think it's probably the points. Anyone else think anything else of it? Thanks!

    GEHL Mitey Mac

    OK, I suspected all of the remedies that you mentioned. I don't get any spark off of the spark plugs, and points. And, do you have a way of testing the distributor coil, because it won't start with jump or anything. The battery is fully charged, and it has 800 Cranking Amps. The starter is...

    It cranks over, doesn't blow smoke, it's a gas, and the gas is fresh, and there is no spark at all. Also, my battery is good, but it barely turns over.
