Ron:

These stinking Garden Tractor problems can be really difficult to diagnose.
If you are like me, you probably fixed/replaced/changed everything else but
the sparkplug first.

I have a lawn edger here that drove me nuts for a couple of years. Had to
use ether to get it started most of the time. Took the carburetor off,
cleaned it and adjusted it a couple of times, fiddled with all the
adjustments, cleaned and adjusted the spark plug several times and one day
changed the lousy spark plug. Now it starts on the first pull! Very
embarrassing! Ve get too soon olt and too late smart. 

For some odd reason, the next trip to the auto parts store several spark
plugs got purchased for the other garden equipment motors in case they are
needed. However, none of the other equipment has exhibited the same problem.
Of course!

Fellows, I think the hard starting 325 garden tractor is fixed.  I 
simply replaced the perfectly good looking spark plug with a perfectly 
good looking new spark plug, adjusted the choke a little and it seems to 
now start reasonably.  It was, however, about 60 degrees here this 
afternoon.  Thanks to all that offered their advice.  It was all excellent.
