International A died and not starting

Posted by Larry Hardesty on June 29, 2009 at 20:30:18 from (74.38.135.21):

I was mowing with my International A last this afternoon. It was missing from time to time and then would run fine. I figured something in the gasline. Finally, after a couple of hours of mowing it died. I figured a gas line problem. Cleaned the sediment bulb. Checked flow of gas from sediment bulb to carb. All okay, but tractor would not fire. Drained gas out of the carb and turned on gas again. Gas flowed to carb but still tractor would not start. So I took the carb off sprayed it with carb cleaner. Put it back on and still it would not start. It would sometimes fire weakly but not run more than a few second. I sprayed some ether in it and it would somtimes kind of act like it would turn over weakly but run just a few seconds and die again. It got dark and I quit for the night.

Looking for other suggestions when I look at it again in the morning. It is converted to 12 volt with an alternator. Quick check and no lose wires. Battery is strong. Thanks in advance. Larry H.
