Something is verry wrong for to have those problems I had the 4000 3 cylinder for probably 30 years and never had any problems like you are having. First one an 65 model 4100 that acording to the numbers was a diesel converted to gas (they use the same block and crankshaft) second a 68 4100 and finally a 68 5100 gas. The only one that ever gave me any problems was the 5000 and it was the carb and aftermarket fuell pump that had been put on it. Then it was the Ford tractor that had no idea how to work on the carb. I finally took the carb off and took it to a person that had been a dealer at the time they were sold. He found the acelerator pump was froze into the carb so bad he could not get it out. He took the carb to a big shop that he knew in Columbus, Ohio and I think they actually had to cut it out. But after somebody that actually knew what to do and how to work on a carb it ran good for the rest of the time I was farming and owned it. It was one of the years that had the smaller engine. I think your problem is that acelerator pump in the carb and no body is getting it repaired correctlt. But I never had a bit of point problems with them and on the 74 Chevy truck had it as daily driver before I ever found out it had points and not electronic. Never had points problems in anything else. And to this day I would not own a diesel. Only diesel I ever seriously considered was a Fordson Major and they only came with a bad diesel, a good gas and they would have been way better.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
