I'm working on a Ford 850 tractor that's been sitting for about 3 years uncovered I have finally gotten it running but have ran into a problem, after it runs long enough to reach normal running temp it dies, here's what I've done so far, converted to a complete 12 volt system, I've replaced the points and condenser cleaned out the inside of the distributor, replaced the plug wires, replaced the coil (12 volt), broke the carburetor down and soaked it in carb. cleaner for 3+ hours (this is a Zenith Carb), after all that it still runs till it reaches normal running temp and dies, when it's cold it cranks with no problem and after it reaches normal temp and dies it still cranks real easy and runs good for a few moments then dies, I did notice one thing when it dies, the governor will bring it back down to almost idle speed before it dies, I would greatly appreciate and ideas any body can send my way.
