The carburators for most tractors are very simple, easy rebuild. Kits are much (MUCH) cheaper than a rebuilt carburator. Besides it's an educational experience. Before you buy the kit to rebuild the carburator, I would put a fuel system/carburator cleaner (from auto parts store) in the tank. Usually the cleaner will solve carburator problems. When you buy the tractor get the operators manual and shop manual. IT (shop) manuals are available at most tractor/farm supply stores. You shouldn't have to drain the entire gas tank to remove the carb. There is a shutoff valve on the sediment bowl, located under the gas tank. Old tractors are a fun hobby. Just take your time, read the manuals until you understand what you want to do. Look around your area of the country. There should be some classes offered by various orgnizations on mechanics. VOAG class, some high schools offered (at one time) night classes for farmers on tractor mechanics.
