We've been battling with a IH gas 464 for over a year now.
When you start it you have to full choke it. Then as soon as you start throttling it up it dies.
When we first had issues with it not running, wouldn't start. We had the carb overhauled and put in a new one of those electronic shutoffs that keep it from dieseling.
Mounted it and could get it to idle, but would die at higher rpms. Then it seemed things went downhill from there for a while. Couldn't even get it started.
We put in new points, condensor, plugs, fuel pump, cleaned the carb up some more. It would fire and run then die. Almost any throttle would cause it to die. Still had to have it at full choke.
Our local Tractor implement has had it for 3 weeks now. They put new cap and rotor on it. Still needed to full choke it to get it going but they could get it to keep running if they inched the throttle up while steadily decreasing the choke. Never would run smooth.
They brought it back hoping some work with a load on it plowing snow wood get it good an warm and straighten it out. It died right after I got the 3 point blade hooked to it and wouldn't start.
It kind of acts like it runs out of fuel, but then floods and won't start. I know, 2 extremes, probably not likely. Some mechanics I talked to said it sounds like an air leak. However, the implement said they checked for that.
We're at a loss, the tractor is back at the implement. Would like to point them in the right direction as nobody is making any real progress.
