I am new to owning a tractor, and I have a problem with my Ford 8N tractor.
The problem is it's not starting. Starter has been replaced. Old fuel bowl had the mesh that appears to be dirty and might not have been allowing fuel to flow through. New fuel bowl has been installed. The tractor would not start. I was told that leaving the fuel bowl valve on flooded the carburetor. I shut it off and drained the carburetor. A week later I started it and it ran for 3 minutes. Then it died again. I was told that the fuel valve must only be open about 1/4 of a turn in the fuel bowl. I shut it off, drained carburetor, and let it sit for a week. The tractor will not start if I have the valve open only 1/4 of a turn or a little more. What could be the problem with it not starting or what should I try?
