No Longer Flooding Out!

This is the follow up to my previous posts about "flooding out".

I did two things.....that finally caused the tractor to run, and keep running:

A) I took the carb apart AGAIN (I knew the trouble was in the carb!) and blew out all the passages with compressed air.

B)I lowered the float a good deal. I dont know why this was necessary, as the tractor had run fine last year with the float the way it was.....but, never-the-less, that is what was causing my flooding.

Put carb back together....and back on tractor, and did three hours of bush-hogging! I'd say it's fixed....finally! Thanks to everyone who helped!

Lesson: If you are getting good spark, and good fuel flow to the carb, and your tractor runs good, then quits for no apparent reason, just dying, as if you turned the key off, it's either flooding out because the float is too high, or there's a piece of dirt in one of the passages in the carb, gumming things up.

What an ordeal figuring this out!

Glad you got it going again! Now you can go out and do some work with it. I'm sure the grass has grown a little on your place. Mark H.

Willy-N! The man who reminded me to blow out the passages!

Yes...my grass is just about ruined now! For some reason, this tractor doesnt seem to like the spring! As it always gives me trouble when it's time to do the first bush-hogging!

Still got a lot more hoggin to do....keep your fingers crossed!
