Mr. N. I. G. seemed to give you some good pointers, but I can't understand why he wanted to insult you. Have you crossed him in the past? The people with a real problem are those who are too stubborn to ask for help.

And he obviously does not know much about starting fluid. I use it regularly as a help when I'm in a hurry or too lazy to fix something. Have never ever damaged an engine with it and have used lots of cans including continued short squirts to keep an engine running to assess it's condition. I've heard of people bending rods in light duty engines but I think the worst thing you will do to a Farmall is wash the cylinder walls and cause some scoring.

Don't be afraid of a repaired distributor cap if it was working. But they are cheap to replace.

You probably did not put the carburetor together wrong, may just have some trash under the float seat. But some of these tractors will drip gas out the weep hole every time you srart them. If the carb does not sit and drip gas out it may be OK. Still, after things are disturbed, a little broken piece of varnish can hold the seat open. I like to cut the fuel line and put an automotive type in-line fuel filter to catch everything the sediment bowl misses.

The danger of having the tractor stuck in gear, if it is, is that you can easily get it into two gears.
