I have a WC with a problem of not running of numbers 3 and 4 cylinders.[NEAREST RADIATOR] Before working on the tractor it was running on all 4. After removing the Intake/Exhanust manifold to re-install new intake and exhaust gaskets. I kept the carb in place and just unhooked the governor lever. Put it back together and got the above mentioned problem. I started it once and forgot to hook the governor up. It started up with full speed in mind. So after a couple seconds, I shut it off and connected it. Since then... The carb I then took off and cleaned... Looked ok. There is no heat generated from no 3 & 4 when you touch the exhaust manifold when running. The new wires and spark plugs are sparking and timed in correct order. Question is, given the above scenario, could there be a break in the head gasket between No 3 & 4 So's to give the impression it's carb trouble for cylinders 3 & 4???, Cylinders 1 & 2 run great like a JD Popper !!!
Any input would be greatly appreciated.... PGE1040089@hotmail.com
