Hello all,
We just go our 1946 Ford 2n running after several months of work! I was reading in some of your posts about the importance of turning off the fuel when I'm through using the tractor.
I see that circular shutoff valve right beneath the fuel tank and is right above the sediment bowl.
I tried turning the circular shut valve Clockwise to turn the fuel off. I kept turning it around and around! It never seemed to stop so I thought something was wrong (maybe it needs to be turned Counter Clockwise instead to shut off?) and I stopped turning it.
My questions:
Is clockwise the correct direction to turn off the fuel?
Should the cutoff valve turn so much in order to turn the fuel off? Will it eventually stop if I keep turning it clockwise?
Once it is turned off all the way, how much do I need to turn it counter-clockwise to turn the fuel on?
I am including a picture from a previous post showing what I am turning. Any help would be appreciated!
