I'm first time owner of tractor and having trouble getting my 1957 Farmall 450 with gas engine to start. It had been starting and running absolutely great all summer then just all of a sudden wouldn't start. I checked gas flow from tank to carb and seem to be getting plenty of flow throughout. Cleaned sediment bowl, checked screen, opened plug on bottom of carb and got good stream. Going back to my farm tonight to take out/check plugs and make sure getting spark from spark plug wires. Just seems strange it just all of sudden wouldn't start without any previous signs of acting up etc. Turns over fine just doen't act like it's even beginning to want to start. Any advice on how to narrow down the problem???
Also, is the fuse holder on the dash just for the lights???
