I think my carburetor on my Super C needs to be rebuilt or at least adjusted. This is my first tractor, some of you might remember my questions from a couple months ago before I bought my tractor. I am 18 years old, and do not have much experience with carburetors.
Anyways, here is the problem. I always try to remember to shut off the fuel line to the carb when I turn off the tractor, but one I forgot to shut it off and I noticed gas leaking out of the carb after a few minutes of sitting. When I tried to start the tractor, it would not start. I shut off the fuel line and gave it a few minutes and tried to empty the fuel line of all gas to the carb and let the engine get un flooded. It started up, but it was running really rough like it was choked, but it was not choked at all.
One other time I forgot to use the fuel shut off and it ran really rough for a couple minutes.
As a separate issue probably related to the carb problem, I noticed the throttle does not work the way it should. The engine seems to run at the same RPM when it is at 0 throttle as when it is at one third throttle. I am not sure if it idling too high or if the throttle just does not start increasing RPM until one third forward.
I might try rebuilding the carb with a rebuild kit. The carb is a Zenith.

Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
