JMOR, I may have to eat some of my words...my problem seems to be temperature related too. When the temp of the fuel filter reaches 115 the fuel stopped flowing. If you doubt me, I have a pic of the bolt removed from the carb and no gas is was coming out in buckets full. From the pic it is difficult to see the plastic filter was empty, however I can tell the fuel stopped flowing into the filter. I even removed the gas cap thinking their may be a problem there, it wasn't. When the filter cooled down to 95 the fuel began flowing on its own. Going to Napa tomorrow and buy 4 ft of rubber hose. Plan to run the gas line behind the battery. When I replace the tank, after I run the old tank out of gas, I'm going to make a heat sheild that goes between the tank and the engine. My tank temp was running 110 about the same as the carb temp. BTY, I was using an IR therometer to measure temps with and the outside temp was 94. I would like to know why the fuel didn't begin flowing when I removed the bolt from the carb? It took a good 10 minutes for things to cool down and the filter filled 99% on its own. This problem seems to show up faster when the tractor is running at 700 RPM's. I think the fan doesn't blow the heat away fast enough and things heat up quicker. I also made heat sheilds for the filter and lines, no luck either. What kind of odd do you give me on fixing the problem with a rubber hose and a different path for the fuel line? Wanta bet?? :) Bragging rights?

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
