When to start my tractor today and noticed a very loud clicking sound when turning the key to middle position and waiting for it to say it’s ok to fire up. It started to fire up but it was very very rough start and struggling to run and with a terrible vibration. I turned it off. Checked all the fluid level which were normal. The quick internet research I did seems to think it’s electrical. Battery, solenoid, or starter. Maybe fuel filter. I’m not sure. I’m uploading a video and was hoping to get some advice on what it might be. Maybe it’s an easy fix and do some work and get it in for service.
