farmall H tractor (1952) rebuilt leaking carb, put back onto tractor, fresh battery, started right up, ran/warm-up, took out to inflate tires, left running, sounding good, went to take off with her in 1st gear, let the clutch out slowly with a little throttle, and the engine wanted to die out, tried this several times and in different gears...always wanted to die, messed around with carb needles/adjustments and then finally killed the engine and could not get started.
The tractor had sat for 1.5 years. Would the gas which was fresh back 1.5 years be a problem?
