A club member was over on Sunday to help me drill out the broke bolts on the engine of my H. In addition, we also took apart the carb, which wasn't in too bad of shape I'm guessing. Stuck valves and in need of cleaning. He said get carb cleaner and throw all the parts in there overnight. So I did, and tonight I took them out and scrubbed them up a bit.
The needle vavle has a little rubber needle on it. Unfortunately it was eaten away. So no more point that closes into the seat.
I looked around, but didn't see that part for sale. Anyone know where to get a new needle? That's the only part I need.

You will remove more fist fulls of hair trying to diagnose a failure to start when ten components have been "redone" than if you get it running as the very next step. Once running, all other issues are at least known quantities, and can be prioritized. Every item gone into (at your modest level of experience and Gung Ho demeanor) becomes an uncertainty that can deal a death blow to the spirit of completion. Many units that are now "parts tractors" were overly taken apart to do it all at once. Being "restored" starts in this case with restoring it to running. With regards, JimN


I'm not disagreeing with you at all on that. I'm trying to stay very contained in what I'm doing. I know it seems like the opposite, but you should see where my brain wants to go when I start working on this tractor! The Carb seemed like an important component, and two experienced club people who saw it said it would need some immediate attention to get it running.

If I could offer any advice, it would be to follow the advice already given here. As with any restoration project, the first thing you should be concerned with is to baseline what you have. Get clean gas to it and get it running. Check out the core systems - engine, transmission, cooling system, electrical, brakes. Concentrate on making it safe first, and then you can start hacking away at the cosmetics. You'll stay much more motivated and less frustrated. With as tight a budget as you have, it's going to be a long process, and taking it for a ride once in a while will make it much more enjoyable.

I agree with Rusty. I also will urge you to take nothing more apart. There is a powerful (and hard earned by all of us experienced wrenches) imperitive. It is to repair one thing at a time.

Mike, do yourself a favor and do a complete rebuild on that carb. There is rust and crud hiding in there that won't come out by simply soaking it in cleaner. If the tractor had been a running tractor you might get by with those shortcuts but since it has been just sitting for awhile you are going to have problems. Trying to re-use old gaskets is asking for trouble.
