Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Montgomery Wards...Old tractor, montgomery wards, drive shaft


Question
I have an old M/W tractor with an electrical pto. Clutch is front of engine mounted with a belt drive shaft to the rear. The model is a G1L33423A. I have an electrical problem, there is no spark at plug. Would like a wiring schematic and/or a service manual on this machine. Can you help?

Answer
Toro purchased Gilson when the purchased Lawn-Boy.  Gilson built the tractor.  There is some stuff on micro fiche but I am not sure what there is.  Call the Toro 800 number and ask to talk to someone in parts.  Tell them you have an old Gilson tractor and need some help.  Otherwise, did you try the MG web site?  Send an e-mail to their customer service department.
