My latest project has been a 1944 A that hasn't ran since 1985.. Been coverd up been outside this whole time with shrink wrap plastic.... The whole machine is a POS but I didn't want see get scrapped... Well like a Dummy I am currently resurecting it. To all friends & family disagreement... The carb has been a BIG ?? Mark.. Looked like it went down with the titanic & you could move NOTHING on it.. After weeks of soaking which didn't help, I used about a whole can of over cleaner on it. Let it soak for a day, Last night was able to REMOVE every plug, every screw, cleaned, rinsed it out. Bowl was so full of rust you could hardly see the float. Cleaned out the holes, blew it out reassembled with new needle & seat / gasket & spring kit.. Threw it on my neighbors A just to see if it leaked, started that tractor & set the adjustments & now he doesn't want me to take it off. Runs better now than it has for a long time... ( so I gotta fix his Now) As for My A, it's light years from ever running at this time, but one of the many items on the list is now crossed off!!!! The tractor is sitting in my shop & consists of a frt frame & pedistal, with a empty crank case & trans case. Bare cast iron..... Another two years it ( MIGHT) be running!!!!LOL
