First of all, in my opinion, any question regarding carbs on these old tractors is not stupid!! I have had the same experience with my Super 55 Oliver. It has a Marvel-Schebler carb on it and we had it apart 5 times before we could get it to run without the choke on. Turns out there was just one little hole we hadn"t found that was solidly plugged. After we cleared it out, our problem was solved.
As for my IH tractors, I have a W4 with a new needle and seat, a fresh cleaning and a good float (that seems to be properly adjusted), but it floods instantly when I turn the gas on. It runs fine once it starts, but I have to start it with the gas off... very annoying.
I"ll be looking forward to the replies you get here because I"ve been able to solve the choke problem, just not the flooding one.
