SA question

Thanks to all who gave me feedback and direction on my SA coil posts yesterday. As update for all I put in a new coil making sure it is wired same as tractor for ground. Then hotter plugs.
I took off the air cleaner assembly to inspect choke and air tube. Choke is correct and open when it should be and short hose between carb and tube was not blocked but was about half full of an oily gas mixture. Prob. my reason for carbon fouled plugs and rich running. I have clean 30 wt. in the cup and had not run the tractor yet today. By putting palm over the top of the air cleaner tube when the tractor was running i thought it felt like strong suction. But the fluid in the hose seemed like about 90 per cent gas, rest oil.. I will say the tractor did start and idle much better (air cleaner off) So do you think I could have a carb float problem ? This is a rebuild with only an hour or two of run time. Air cleaner tube needing cleaned somehow? If the float is wrong will gas overflow and sit in the throat where the choke is? I appreciate any direction you folks send. Steve
