Hi, Me agian.... hopefully I am not asking too many questions but you guys are a goldmine of info... Thanks so much.
My next problem is I realized that the fuel pump on my IH2444 has been bypassed. The line comes right from the tank goes through and in-line filter and into the carb. In other words it is gravity fed. The tractor runs well as is but I am concerned that on a steep hill the level of the tank may be below the level of the carb and the tractor will starve for gas. Is this a valid concern. I noticed the fuel pump is located much lower than the carb. I think there is a good reason for this. Also there is no bowl type filter in the fuel supply. How necessary is this type of filter? If the fuel pump does not work can I use a generic electric one to replace it with (It is and electric pump now I think).
Thanks again for your advice. Hopefully one day I will be able to give a little back to the forum instead of just take.
