Hello guys,
As a Belgian IH collector I'm new here, so first of all: hello everyone!
I immediately have a question for you guys: I rebuilt the engine from my Farmall F12. I also rebuilt the fuel pump and the carburetor. Now, the engine starts really
easily, after one push of the crank. The problem however: the engine doesn' run smoothly and after 10 seconds or so, it starts to blow black smoke. Eventually, after
some more black smoke, the engine dies and gas appears at the bottom of the carb (where it is screwed onto the manifold).
So, it seems that the carb is flooding/giving too much gas. Where do you guys think the problem is situated? What should I do first?
Thanks a lot for your consideration!
Regards,
Rob
