620 not getting fuel??

bleazenb · Oct 9, 2018

I have a 58 620 not getting fuel to the cylinders to fire? Carb has good fuel flow to it and carb float bowl is full. What should I be looking for? Thanks.

Air intake plumbing clear? Carburetor throat clear? Does it draw air in when turning over? Valves opening/ closing properly?

Rest of the story was this tractor was restored to near show quality and with less that 2-3 hours on it was put into storage for close to 12 years and hasn't been started till now. Air intakes are clear, carb is good and clean, but have not checked the valve operation.

After sitting that long, make sure it has a good blue spark at the plug wire and check the plugs too. Your problem may be electrical. Squirt some oil in the cylinders to lube the rings before you start it. Ben

Stored that long, I'd bet the $.20 I've got on me that mud daubers have been busy in the intake stack. Don't ask me how I know. See if removing the oil bath improves things.

Very good idea, I have seen stored JD tractors loose the rind seal from oil draining away..

Squirt in to re-seal the rings and it may fire right up..
