I have a 1946 Farmall A that ran when
parked last 5 years maybe more in a
climate controlled garage. I got it out
drained all the gas put fresh gas in and
it won't run. I rebuilt the zenith carb
new jets new floats everything on there
cleaned it all out really well ran a
torch tip cleaner through all the holes
used compressed air after that. All new
gaskets in and on the carb. It does have
a ton of suction when you crank it over
and put your hand over the intake to
carb. So I know it's got plenty of
vacuum. The intake exhaust gaskets are
good no leaks there. I can spray
starating fluid down the mushroom cap and
it will fire right up and then dies. I'm
completely lost. I really don't want to
go buy a new carb. And then it still
won't start... any help would be much
appreciated
Thanks Doug
