have been a regular reader here for a bit & looks like there are some pretty sharp mechanics here so thought i"d give this a shot built a tractor 20 years ago ( have since up-graded to a 49 8n to actually use ) the home made one still kicks around as i can"t part with it for about 2 years the only way i can make it run & keep it running is to put duct tape over the top of the carb choking off 90% of the intake air motor is 2000cc ford with 2 barrel carb have checked every where for vaccum leaks, good supply of gas, etc have not removed carb & tore apart in a few years as i worry about lack of parts to rebuild i did have the head off a few years ago to do the valves but it ran fine after so i don"t think a timing belt or dist problem is it anyone got any ideas it would be greatly appreciated once in awhile when i got nothin goin on i like to fire it up & see if i can solve the problem bob
