Tractor pros, I have a 1961 Massey Ferguson 35 deluxe. About 6 years ago I had it repainted and tuned up and hoses, etc. replaced as needed. I have had this machine for about 10 years. After the refurbish it has run without fail as perfect as possible until a few weeks ago. Then it would quit and then it would not run unless the choke was out and it would not idle. I think you get the picture. After removing the carb and tearing it apart it showed the float was frozen with corrosion to the bottom. I bought a new cast iron replacement and put that on. It will idle about 1,000 RPM and the idle screw is way back. If I try to move the throttle back it dies. I had it running for a half an hour today and even under a slight load ( snow plow ) but then it starts to spudder and fart and will just die . I have checked filters, screens, fuel is always fresh high test no ethanol. What may anyone suggest I check next ? I suppose it is possible the new carb is defective ? Thanks, JZ

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
