[AJD] 345 garden tractor(actually a 325)

[Ronald L. Cook]

Thanks, Rick.
	I'll check the gap.  I haven't changed the spark plug in about a year, 
I'll guess.  It always has had to crank many revolutions before firing 
up.  Makes me upset with it.  Really the only fault I can find with it 
but I sure am glad it doesn't have a recoil start. <g>
