202 was running bad

After two big long storms here, my dirt roads were in pretty bad shape. I went out with the 202 with a box blade on the back. It started running bad with a load on it. It wouldn't pull a full box blade up a hill.

I go it home and figured it was either spark or gas. First thing I did was pull the bottom drain out of the carb bowl. The gas just came trickling out, not like it should. So I then pulled the gas line off the carb and it ran fine into a mason jar. So I was sure it was that brass elbow with the filter on it in the carb. I pulled that out and it was very dirty. I held it up to the sunlight and couldn't even see through it.

Then it dawned on me that I had one of those as a spare part for my 8N. Got that one out of the shed and sure enough it fit.

Back in business. Why can't all fixes be that simple?
 
When I have that happen to me I just spray them out real good with carb cleaner spray and then blow them out with air and I am good to go again
 
If you use the correct type yes they work but if you use one made for a fuel pump they will cause more problems then the yare worth. I have thrown at least 30 of them as far from the tractor as I could because they caused to many odd problems
 
I've used ones like this for many years, never had any problems with them.

A filter in the tank, one in the bowl, another in the carb. It's a crap shoot which one stopped up and that's why I use an inline plus a ball valve.

My 2135 gasser (I even used a ball valve on my diesel 135).

All the new shutoffs that has the screen, and bowl always leak (don't make stuff like they used to).
 
Your lucky then I have had those cause so many problem it is not funny. If a person does not run there tractors with a full tank of gas those filter will cause many problems
