Hi, All,
I rebuilt the carb on my 841 and while I was dickering with other stuff, the tractor sat. Then it was very weak and seemed fuel starved. Good flow from the tank and the screens OK.
Took apart the carb. Full of rust and gunk.
I assume that water dissolved in the ethanol-tainted gas is what did it. Since ethanol-free gas is hard to come by around here, I have to figger this out.
Do any of you routinely drain the carb bowl?
thnaks!
