Henry - If the tractor runs OK once it starts, flooding while cranking comes from using too much choke. Unless it's below about 60 deg, a properly adjusted H will generally start with no choke whatsover. Of if it does need choking just a quick pull and return of the choke rod while the engine is being cranked will get it going. Now if the carburetor drips with the engine STOPPED that's a different story! Something's wrong with the float or float needle valve - time to go inside the carb for a look. Incidentally the shutoff valve at the sediment bulb should be used only to shut off the fuel when putting the tractor away, or to remove/clean the sediment bulb. And even the shutoff does leak it will not cause flooding, etc of the carburetor.
