I?ve always heard that you should cut off the fuel cutoff when
you finish using the tractor or the gas will get into the oil pan
and contaminate the oil.
I find nothing in the manuals to support this. It seems it?s
purpose is so you can shut off the fuel so you can clean out
the sediment bowl.
Seems the floats in the carb would prevent flow to the carb
when it is full.
Also, I?m not sure how fuel could make its way to the oil pan
from the carb.
What do you think. As smart as Henry Ford was did he
overlook this?
