Good evening all. I purchased a 841 about a year ago as a project tractor and well, i still don have it running. It is in pretty good physical shape but won't fire. It is a 63' 841 gas. I have rebuilt the carburetor with no change. When i crank the tractor over with the choke set raw fuel runs out of the intake end of the carb. Hence why i rebuilt it, after rebuild same thing. I did some research and found out that some of these old tractors will pour raw fuel out with the coke set at full on. I bought the tractor not running from a gentleman that used it regularly to move trailers around on his property, then it wouldn't start one day and it sat for two years before i bought it. I have no idea what he has done to it prior to me buying it other than he has a 6 volt ign. coil installed but he told me that he thought it was a 12v system with a 12v battery. Im lost at my next diagnostic point. I feel pretty confident in my abilities but just cant figure this ting out. Turns over good, i checked for spark one time and it appeared to have it, fuel during out of the carb and still no go. I appreciate all and any words of advise. Im excited to get this thing fired up running and working. Looking to complete a full restoration on it in the next few years. Thanks all!
