Hello all,
I"m feeling dead ended and I"m looking for thoughts and feedback.
Our 48 Super A ran well all season. Towards fall it wouldn"t start and the carb kept flooding. We ran into issues with the carb rebuild and ended up purchasing a new Zenith 14007. That is now on the tractor along with new fuel line. The old battery was bad and today I purchased a new battery. I was excited to fire the thing back up but ended up getting no where.
Upon start the battery is juiced the starting motor is turning, the fan is turning. The tractor has brand new plugs and they appear to have good spark. However the carb just floods and the tractor doesn"t even cough or sputter. It appears I"m getting no firing. I took off the air cleaner and sprayed starting fluid in the carb and tried again. Nothing not even sputter. I"ve greased the distributer and drive housing and serviced the distributer and repeatedly tried to start it. Nothing. No change.
Any thoughts and insight would be very appreciated!!
