My brother recently purchased a Ford 3000 gas burner. It was running fine and then just stopped starting up. He ran it routine projects bush hogging, spraying, etc. He used it one afternoon and the next day it would not start.
ISSUE: The tractor turns over but will not start. I have check the electrical from the switch through the coil, distributor, points, all the wires, to the spark plugs and the plugs have spark to the cylinders. (Good fire)
I check the fuel and it has go flow from the tank to the mechanical fuel pump to the carburetor. I open the bowl on the carburetor and there is ample fuel in the bowl. (the fuel out of the bowl was not overly dirty)
The tractor has a very new carburetor and it allegedly has 50 hours of use or less on it.
What other checks could I make to determine the problem of not starting? Any and ll suggestion recomendations will be helpful.
