I used Google to search the part number (369149R91) for the fuel tank, and got more than several hits to the same place, Rock Valley Tractor Parts. It says they have 2 of them, but doesn't say if they are new or used. Here is the link:http://www.tractorhouse.com/list/PartsSearch.aspx?PartNum=369149R91

If turning the fan causes the crankshaft to move to a different position, then your problem could very well be missing teeth on the flywheel ring gear that the starter teeth mesh with to start the tractor. Engines tend to stop in certain spots in the rotation causing the starter to engage the ring gear in those spots more frequently, thus wearing the teeth in those positions while the teeth remain good in other spots.
