I have a '58 MF-65 gas. It was running fine then started to lose pwer and then died. Acted like a fuel problem. I have pulled the carb & sediment bowl and they are clean. Fuel seems to flow well. After it dies it will start up again and die after a few seconds. Acts like no gas. Any help would be great. P.S. Big Dean I e-mailed you directly on this from work e-mail, and didn't hear anything, wasn't sure if you had seen the e-mail or not.
P.S.S. Jeff/oh, I'm planing on saturday at the expo if all goes well, hopt to see you there.

Good I look forward to seeing you. I just pulled me TE-20 onto the trailer and I getting ready.

As for you MF-65 I still be it's a fuel thing. Did you check the filter in the carb? The brass elbow (where the fuel line connects) has a screen filter on it. Also could you be just plain running out of gas?

I don't mean to sound condicending, it's just that when I purchased my MF-65 the guys said he couldn't get the engine started. He put in a gallon a fresh gas, and since the engine would not start he knocked $1000.00 off.

I brought it home took a flach light and looked in the tank... Yep there was a gallon of gas in there, but not enough to clear the fuel bowl inlet. Three gallons of gas later she fired right up. I know fuel is expensive, but that gallon cost him $1000.00 bucks.

Plenty of gas. I'll check the screens again. I've got the tank drained to remove it and look for rust. Had to put the whole project on hold to put a new clutch in the wifes' car monday.
