Ive got a C that has just refused to start run smoothly this spring. I did a plug change and had a look at the points and rest of the guts in the distributor and it all looks brand new.
I rebuilt the carb (marvel fixed jet) and set the idle adjustment screw per the instructions. When I go to start it It will crank, fire, sputter a few times and die. The choke position seems to have little effect in how long it runs before dying. Once it finally started last night I had to back the idle adjustment screw way out so the tractor would stay running under load. This morning Im right back to the sputter and die when starting. Any advise on what to do before I trash the starter?
