Hello everyone, I'm hoping to solve this ongoing problem. My tractor is a 1969 International 544, with a C-200 Engine.
The carb is a Zenith 13384.
My tractor starts without any hesitation. After running from anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes it will stall suddenly, sometimes after a few engine revs. It stalls reliably when the engine is at full throttle or it is working hard with my backhoe attachment, but it can still stall without any hydraulic levers pulled at all. It has also stalled while using a disc in heavy soil.
My air filter is clean and new. My manifold is highly discolored, but I don't see any holes in it. My fuel shutoff solenoid was just replaced, and it is definitely working correctly.
My problem doesn't seem to be related to engine temperature. It could be a fuel issue as my glass bowl does have rust in it. That brings up a side question:
what is the most elegant way to put in a modern fuel filter? I'm not excited to cut into my original metal fuel lines, but will do so if necessary.
Do I just need to clean or rebuild the carb? Or does this sound more like a gas problem? Thank you for any help.
