Hello Tractor friends,
I've recently purchased and 1952 8N with an aftermarket loader on front. The old gentleman who sold it to me said he brought it back to life (painted, fixed hydraulics, etc.)
After using it very moderately for about 2 weeks, it developed a problem that it still has - it starts and runs really well for a few minutes and then dies suddenly and won't start for ten minutes or so.
- The gas tank is full
- I checked the setting bowl and it was full of junk but is now clean
- I check the fuel filter just upstream from the carb and it was nasty but is now clean.
- The carb is clean and shiny now that I cleaned it out.
It behaves almost exactly the same after I took everything apart upstream of the carb... I have no ideas anymore. Thoughts?
