Help. My Super A that was running perfectly now won't crank. I mentioned in a previous post that it was missing on Saturday. I pulled it in the shed and shut it down. Today I picked up new plugs, gaped them at .023" per manual, put them in, and no joy! It cranks over but won't fire. I put the old plugs back and still no luck. I had gas dripping from the small drain under the bottom of carb. So I pulled the pipe plug in the manifold and let it set for about a half an hour. Figured I had flooded it. When I went back, I replaced the pipe plug in manifold, it started and then immediatly died. Still have old plugs in. Any ideas? Where do I start? This tractor has always started easily, even by hand. Firing order has been doubled checked by picture in owners manual. All I have done since it ran good is replaced springs in govener and throttle shaft in carb. It ran after this but was missing some. Carb was rebuilt last July. Distributor hasn't been off tractor. Was going to check valve clearence but thought I should get motor up to temp first. Thanks , Daniel
