5520 slow starting?

[Kyhills]

I am looking to buy a 2004 5520 that has 2700 hrs on it. You have to crank it 3-4 seconds before it will start, even after it is warmed up. Is this normal for this tractor or could there be a problem with the fuel system? Thanks.

You may want to look at this post to see, if it applies. I also suggest that you do a search, just on the title line using the keyword 5520 as there are other post you may find of interest. Here is an online version of the operators manual.

Good luck with your purchase.
