This can be a blessing in disguise. On any overhaul that I"ve done, I make it a rule to never try to start the engine without taking a little break and doing a little instant replay on the assembly process. Too often the engine assembler gets in a hurry and forgets some little, but important detail.
Now is a good time to go through the engine engine assembly in your head. You"ve torqued everything, added oil, water, fuel.....All fittings are tight, there are no parts/bolts/nuts/ leftover.....Valves have the proper clearance.....etc.
Amazing how that could possibly save you from doing your overhaul again.

So..... how does it run?

Well this isnt an overhaul , just starting an old tractor that has been sitting at least 10 years plus.... I'm beginning to think considerably longer actually.

Sunday got the gas, then learned the fuel line from sediment bowl to carb was blocked, got that taken care of and then had the carburator flood with gas, I guess the float had got stuck from the long ride home from Saskatewan. So a quick carb dissaseemble and clean up and setting the adjustemnts to factory and low and behold serial #10073 fired right up. Good oil pressure at 22-25 lbs and no leaks oil or antifreeze... backed it out of the garage and had it running about 1/2 hour total. nice and smooth after the first couple minutes.

So that a big hurdle, Now that its running there is a bunch of stuff to be attended to but I wont be tearing it down so it should go pretty quick

Thanks to all that have helped with the advice and leads on parts here.
