Well, the tractor is fine and now back at the farm the valve cover gasket did fail (manufacture's defect) but the reason it wouldn't turn over was because of something I had been suspicious about - the gas tank - instead of rust like I had previously thought, it was the gas 'varnish' that had clogged up the fuel line as it had flaked off the interior of the gas tank. Sea Foam should fix that problem.

Anyways, I couldn't have asked for better tractor doctors than the mechanics I've met and let work on my baby.

Time to get to work on getting a plow for said tractor so I can plant my sweet corn in a few weeks after all the snow has melted away here in good ole Sno-hio!

If you keep having trouble with that tank maybe a taller standpipe in the fuel bowl will help ?
