Hello gentleman... I'm new to the 8n world but trying to get the family 8n tractor running. I have replaced the coil, points, cap, rotor, condenser, plugs and wires.... I have got to the point where if i sprayed carb cleaner I can keep it running but once I stop spraying it dies out... I assumed it was the carburetor and replaced with a new one. Unfortunately did the same thing..... I got a wiring diagram and rewired everything including putting a new ignition switch. Still nothing... this morning I had some luck keeping it runni g without carb cleaner... I disconnected the pipe that goes from carb to air cleaner but at air cleaner and putting my hand over the pipe I was able to manipulate air going in pipe by opening and closing my hand. But if I opened my hand it would die out. Im lost please help.
