My International 504 seems to use alot of gas. I never have to choke it to start it, if I do it floods out. If I let it sit over night with the gas valve closed it acts like it flooded with gas sitting in the bottom of the air intake. I rebuilt the carb this summer.I took the carb apart again today and couldn't see any thing wrong. Now when the temp is below freezing its pretty hard to start. I use a freeze plug heater for 2 hours before I try to start it now which reduces the problem. What am I missing?

Have you adjusted the valves lately? If there's no clearance you get symptoms like you described.

Have you checked the air cleaner/filter lately, if its a filter try starting it with the filter removed and if its an oilbath maybe change the oil to a lighter weight or remove the bowl and try and start. good luck
