We have a F-20 that was overhauled a couple of years ago with 4" pistons and sleaves,bearings etc. and head reworked. The engine and governor were rebuilt by the machine shop and the engine was reassembled by them and we reassembled the governor. The magneto and carburetor were sent out and rebuilt a couple of years ago as well. We have just recently been able to get back to this project after getting it painted and reassembling. The tractor has electric start and after timing the magneto we got the tractor to backfire once like it was out of time. There are two DC marks on the fly wheel so, I took the inspection cover off of the block and confirmed the piston was at the top and on the second DC mark and re- timed the magneto. Will only fire once still and that is with using starting fluid. I have put gas on spark plugs and nothing. Fuel is dripping from Carb and I have suction at the throat of the carb. Sprayed starting fluid and brake cleaner by intake manifold and appears to be no leak. New gasket on exhaust manifold.Spark appears strong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
