Hello: I have a 1949 B that was fouling out the plugs so I rebuilt the carb including cleaning out all the passage ways. After rebuild same old fouling of the plugs and sounded like it was loading up. I borrowed a carb off my neighbors B and same thing happens. I disconected the air intake end of carb to see if air stack was plugged, but didn't help. The right plug seems to foul much more than the left. When I open the right petcock to start alot of thick greasey gas and oil mix drips out I have also replaced the points and condenser and plugs Gas is fresh and replaced the spark plug wires. The tractor was running ok for two years using it to plow , plant, ect. Last spring when I was plowing one of the plugs fouled out and replaced it to finish the job and used the tractor for little jobs all summer. It seems to me that it wasn't running just right but didn't put alot of pressure on it. This spring I started with the carb which I have already explained. What is my problem(s)? Is it the carb only or do I have other problems getting involved to complicate things. Thanks in advance for any help you folks can throw my way Drew s/w Wi.

Drew, It sounds like you have other problems than carburetion. What is the fouling on the plug looking like? Gas fouling is usually thin black coating that is hard to remove. Oil fouling is usually thicker sometimes gooey and that is what I think you have from what you say about the stuff coming from the petcock. You may have a broken oil ring or groove in the cylinder wall or even a badl;y worn valve guide. Sounds like some testing (compression, cylinder leak down) is the next step or a teardown to look. Good luck. Bob
