Yesterday I mowed pasture for about two hours and it ran great. This morning it did not want to start, got it running but its like it would run just until the fuel in the carb ran out then it would shut down. I pulled the sediment bowl off to check for fuel flow, the flow looked fine. I could not get the bowl to reseal so I went to the dealer and got a new rubber seal. I noticed when putting the sediment bowl back on if gas was running into the bowl as I was tightening the bowl nut (to seal the bowl) as the bowl sealed the gas would completely stop flowing??? If I loosened the bowl fuel would start to flow again...is this normal? almost what I would call a vacuum lock. I could let the tractor sit for a couple minutes and it would start right up and run for 2-3 minutes then shut off until i let it sit for another couple minutes then I could repeat the process over and over
Thanks in advance for any assistance
