I have a super C, I have had for years. today, I have a problem I have never had before ever.
The tractor had been sitting for a couple of months. when I tried to start it, it would hit, and die right away. instead of trashing out my starter, I decided to pull start it with the farmall B, thinking that it may have flooded.
I know this old tractor well enough, that if it dont start right away, SOMETHING IS WRONG! a quick check of the firing system, revealled nothing amiss.
When I pulled it, & put it in fourth, it blew raw gas all over the tractor, out of the exhaust, and down the side of the motor!
I shut off the igition, knowing a spark at this point would probablly blow the tractor engine apart.
I shut off the fuel, and pulled it in gear until it quit blowing gas, turned the igition back on. she hit a couple of times, so I turned the gas back on, and she would not hit a lick, & started blowing raw fuel again.
The only thing I can think of is the carb, maybe the needle stuck open. however, it seems to me that a flooded carb would leak fuel everywhere.but it dosent.
Im very worried about my ol"girl, I know I will have to change the plugs, and oil, and clean out the intake.
has anyone had this happen to a tractor? If so e-maile me asap, tempola@aol.com thanks.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
