NAA Carb., starter but turns off.

Just converted my NAA from propane to gasoline. Installed gas tank, new fuel line, points, condenser, and carburetor (rebuilt). Got everything working; tractor starts right away. However, once I start giving it gas, when I have pulled the throttle about 3/4 of the way, it suddenly dies on me, OR when I try to run it in 3rd or 4th gear. Then it will not start again at all. I have choked it, but nothing. I have used starting fluid, and again nothing.

However, if I let it sit all day long, or over night, it will kick on right way, no choke or starting fluid. Will start as soon as I press the starter button and will run on idle until I give it some gas or try to run in three or fourth gear, then it dies.

Question: Since I converted the tractor from propane to gasoline, Do I need to chance any ignition or engine setting??????

Thank you in advance for your assistance. David

Maybe......

But you need to do some simple diagnostics first. Determine if you have a spark or fuel problem. See tip # 13.

Dirt what Bruce said. At stall check spark. When you see it has spark, start figuring out why its not getting gas.
 

If I was in your neighborhood, I'd be trying to buy the discarded propane equipment for my Jubilee. :)
 
rened zuniga, It must be loosing spark as you say it won't start with choke or starting fluid after it stops.Try jumping a hot wire from the battery side of the coil to + battery post if it is negative ground,- post if positive ground.Thus bypassing the ignition switch.the switch could be going bad.The center post coil wire should jump 1/4"blue/white spark or more when held away from the block and cranked over.The coil could be dieing
