140 Farmall

Produceguy · Jun 28, 2014

I have a 140 Farmall that we cultivate with. It will run really good for about 30-45 minutes then it starts coughing/sputtering. It will go about 5 feet then dies. If I choke it some, it will go about 10 feet before it dies. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

You have an obstruction in the fuel line.Could be crap(rust) in the tank plugging the sediment bowl inlet.Plugged gas filter(if it has one),the screen in the carb plygged.Start at the top.Check each 'joint'.mace sure you have good flow at each point.Work from top to bottom....Let gas run from each place for a bit.Espcially the carb drain,a minute or tw

r the fuel tank vent could be plugged.Gas wont flow from a vacume. Good Luck!Post back the solution/problem found....

Are you sure the gas cap vent is working as running for that long doesent sound rite.

Great advice. I have a cub that would die like that. The screen right before the carb inlet was clogged with junk. Cleaned it out, ran strong.
