My tractor will start and run just great for 30 to 40 seconds, then it quite suddenly dies. There is not a fuel filter on the tractor. Bowl remains full of gas. Any ideas?

I had this problem on my case. The problem was a fleck of rust in the needle valve seat. It allowed the bowl to fill normally but the tractor would only run for a couple of minutes. If the problem is rust in the bottom of the tank something someone might try is fitting a motorcycle style petcock on the tank . These petcocks have tubes that don't take gas off the bottom of the tank. Plus most have a reserve that could allow you to get home if you run out of gas.
Hope this helps

Lacquer thinners makes a good cleaner for sediment bowl and available at any hardware store also I install a piece of rolled up brass screen in the inlet of sediment bowl approximately 1 1/2" to 1 3/4" above inlet solder in and bend top over and solder seems to solve the particle sediment from getting into inlet and plugging. Good Luck

Every two years or so the same thing happens to my gas powered 770. I have found that a very light film of rust coats the screen at the bottom of the tank. If I am in a hurry I simply take an air nozzel and blast some air back up into the tank through the fuel line, just make sure the cap is off the tank. This little back flush usually buys me a day or two until I can drain the fuel, remove the bottom fitting and clean the tank.

Also make sure that the gas cap vent isn't plugged - see if it runs better with the cap off.

You may want to take the bowl off and see what type of fuel flow you get. It almost sounds as if there may be an obstruction or gelled fuel in the line. As the outlet line is above the top of the bowl, even if there was no fuel flow the bowl should remain full.

You may be able to work a thin flexible wire back into the tank to clear the obstruction. If not, I was able to find a good solvent at the parts house that I soak the sediment bowl assembly in that clears out the goo.
