    John Deere L-110 won't start
    Message went out.. ok here's the deal: Tractor has about 60 hours on it and last summer
    Showed signs of not starting easily. I changed plug and got new battery and fresh gas
    And now it cranks strong and a click can be heard after 2 seconds of cranking but no
    Ignition unless I spray STARTING FLUID into the air intake mesh. Then the tractor runs
    Great for as long as needed until turned off and then won't start when the throttle is
    In full run position. Think spark is too weak even though more than one plug has been tried.

    Don't want to use Starting Fluid more than I must.. would appreciate any help as I don't want
    To pay for hauling to a dealer when it may just need a part. Thanks ahead of time... GREG

    First off, use carb and choke cleaner, it will work fine and is not nearly as hard on the engine as starter fluid. Have you checked the valve clearances?
