I left the tractor out last night and it rained on it... I have had flooding problems (probable stuck float) but after just turning off the fuel petcock i was getting around.
It is sitting with a slight uphill angle. Instead of fuel going up the intake it is pouring out the air inlet. I have tapped with a hammer, checked the plugs (cleaned them and they stay dry), spark (has), and compression (has). Basically it seems that something is blocking the intake and rechanneling fuel out the air horn... So the problem is obviously fuel getting to the cylinders. I want to get it back to the barn, then it will be out of the rain and I can get the carb rebuilt.
Idea's or tricks for a short burn to get her to the barn?
