I had not started my Super A for at least a year. After draining gas, soaking/cleaning the carb with carb cleaner etc... I now have gotten it started. I am not a mechanic....just a "parts replacer" so this was a big achievement for me.
It has a zenith carburetor with a idle screw at the top and a screw at the bottom of the carb (facing front of tractor). I have tweaked these but it will only idle. I took the carb apart again and shot cleaner through all jets (everything is clear). Now it starts fine but will not rev up. When I push the throttle up all the way, it moves the throttle but revs very little. As soon as I put it into gear it bogs down and will die if I don't push in on clutch. Afterward the tractor will sit and barely putt..... eventually it will build back up speed.
It is obviously not getting enough gas, but the line is clear to the carb, and the bottom of the carb is full of gas when I take it off and all jets are clear when I push carb cleaner through them. I am at the end of my limited knowledge and any help would be appreciated. Thanks
