I'm having issues getting my 1951 8N started. I recently purchased it and do not know it's history so I have slowly been going over it. So far I've done new oil and filter, new plugs and wires, starter bendix and cleaned the fuel bowl screen and in trying to clean the air cleaner I had some difficulties getting it apart for cleaning. I ran the engine in the garage with the air cleaner removed while trying to get the oil cup off the cleaner. I was unable to the cleaner apart so I ordered a new one off of yesterday tractors and installed it tonight however now the tractor won't start with it installed, if I remove it, it starts right up. Any suggestions on where to look? I have not yet rebuilt the carb but this my be next on the list.
I am getting plenty of fuel out of the carb drain plug and using a spark plug tester I am getting spark to each cylinder.
Thanks!
