: I,ve just started my wd45 after 7 yrs of storage. It runs OK after start-up but then stall out after it warms up, especially under load. I've changed or cleaned all filters, replaced all ignition components (plugs,wires,points,coil,12v:6 resister) and disassembled, cleaned and re-adjusted the carb. While running the tractor in the dark, I noticed a constant spark flash visible from the left side of the manifold. Could a hole in the manifold or a bad manifold gasket be causing the problem? Any other ideas?
Try giving it a little bit of starting fluid on the inlet
side of the carburator just when it starts to stall
it it picks up and runs better, you have a fuel system problem.
If the problem is still there, I would put a 12V coil
on it with built in resistor, try to change it while
the engine is still warm, and see if that corrects
the problem.
