Hello Moe welcome to YT! Everything I will add would be covered by what rustred suggests but just want to highlight a couple things. The main thing, he is telling you is to check the fuel flow from the carb drain. The fuel has to get inside of the carb for it to get in the fuel circuits to run the engine. Not sure how much you been around Farmalls, if you have been you would know about this. The fitting that screws in the carb that the fuel line connects to has a fine screen on it, see the link. If you did not know about it you need to pull it out and clean it. However It is fairly rare for that stopped up carb strainer fitting to keep it from restarting for 30 to 45 minutes. Although with just the right amount of fine lint etc. there is a possibility it could seal up fairly tight. It is possible a new condenser can be bad also a new coil, for them to act exactly the same is rare. Not sure what your wiring is like but there is a possibility that something is loosing connection there as well, maybe the internal switch contacts. If you get to the point where it has stalled and will not restart run a lead direct to the coil or switch side of the resistor from the battery post. If that keeps it running continuously then the problem is in your wiring somewhere. Also once a resistor, or at least the original ceramic block style, has failed they are failed for good. It has a coiled wire in it to build the resistance. The wire runs hot due to this. When it fails and breaks apart, the wire ends then pull away from each other when the coil cools leaving no possible way for them to reconnect. There may be other types of resistors that may possibly reconnect after failure. Good luck! Let us know what you find.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK).
