I wanted to let everyone who tried to help me know that my fuel problem has been solved. It sounded like the fuel filter was the most likely culprit. I planned on just removing it but my fuel strainer is missing the screen and it turns out my fuel line fitting going into the carb is also missing it's screen. So not wanting to run it without any kind of filter, I decided to find a more appropriate filter to use until I can get the screens for the strainer and the inlet. I wound up going to the hardware store and getting a fuel filter for Briggs & Stratton. This filter (FF-125A) can handle up to 5/16" fuel line and 80 hp. I figured that because this filter is also good for the smaller engines that are also gravity fed, that it might work for my Farmall. I installed it and the flow seems fine and the engine runs perfect. I will still try to get the original screens installed so that everything is original and then I may just remove it although, if it continues to run well, the added protection would be welcomed. Thank you everyone who offered their help. Dave
