My 53 Farmall super M LP was running great. I use it to power an irrigation pump. It had just completed running for about 6 hours the night before. I went to get it and take it to the fuel tank. It started fine but when I let the clutch out it acted like the choke was pulled all the way out. It is an LP and it don't have a choke. It would run fine until it encountered ANY small load then it started having trouble. I nursed it to the shop and it got worse along the way. I have been through the regulator and found nothing wrong. Took the bottom half of the carb. off and cleaned. Nothing wrong. Fuel is coming to the carb. I can take the hose off the bottom of the carb and fuel will come out of the hose when I press the button on the side of the regulator but it will not flow all of the time. I am under the impression the carb should draw the fuel, not be force fed, and this appears to be the case. It is NOT being force fed. I have cleaned the air cleaner and am confidant it is getting air freely. I have even removed the hose from the carb to the air cleaner just to be sure. The more I mess with it the worse it gets. I have put new points, condenser, plugs, wires, rotor, cap and set the timing. Now it will just barely start and run for maybe 4 or 5 seconds and then die. I was starting to restore it little at a time so I have a new battery, both cables are new, new wires from the coil to the switch, and several other things not related to engine performance. I am at a loss at this point. What else is there? I need this thing to get to work and pump water quick. Please help. I am open to ANY suggestion. Thanks.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
