I am a first time tractor owner. I have a 1962 Massey Ferguson 50. I am having trouble keeping it running. It will run fine for a while and then it starts cutting out and dies. It usually starts right back up but will run rough for a while and then may die again or it might run ok for a while and then cut out and die again. I was thinking of replacing as much electrical items I could. Plug wires, coil, distributer cap, rotor, dust cap, voltage regulator, solenoid, and plugs. At first I thought it could be a fuel issue and it may be. I have replaced the fuel cap and there doesn't seem to be a fuel filter only a sediment bowl which is always clean. I am currently baffled and would appreciate any feedback on this issue. I am trying to avoid spending money that I don't need to. It is a 4 cylinder Continental engine 12 volt system.
