Just read the post from Royse regarding the carb rebuild. Nice job if I may say so. I have rebuilt several of my Ford tractor carbs over the years and recently rebuilt one for my Jubilee. Ordered it on line from a reputable supplier. Was surprised to see it was made in India. Several thing I notice that I did not care for. First, one spring missing from the kit for the idle screw. I reused my old one. In fact, I reused all my old springs, because the supplied springs were not made of spring steel and if compressed enough will not return to shape. Spring supplied for float/main needle would not fit so I didn't use it. I didn't have one to begin with. Impossible to install packing under throttle arm, however packing for choke arm did fit. Biggest complaint was main needle was much smaller in diameter than original but seeing as seat diameter was smaller they fit as a matched set, but old and new parts could not be substituted. However with that said, tractor does run fine and I have used it for several hours with no complaints. Just another example of the crap we are getting from off shore parts suppliers. (in my opinion)

" Ordered it on line from a reputable supplier."
A reputable supplier is not going to knowingly sell something like that.
Did you let them know about the quality of the parts?
I would have sent it back.
The retailers do not have any quality control tests other than the customers.
I did have one reputable supplier tell me a few years ago that he would no longer sell N fan shrouds because the only ones he could get were junk & did not fit.
