I have a '44 Farmall H which was leaking out of the bottom adjustment screw (i know, its common). Otherwise than this, it runs great and starts like charm. I replaced the packing, but now I can't get it started. Here is what I have done, and it still will not start: -totally cleaned carb (it had junk in the jet, probably from the old packing removal). -replaced fuel filter and checked fuel flow out the side petcock, which was ok. -adjusted settings on carb.

If I use some starting fluid, it will run very weak if I choke it hard, but if you let out the choke at all, it cuts out. What can I do to troubleshoot this problem?

thanks, Jesse

1. If you have a automotive style fuel filter, you don't need it if your tank is clean. Some of those types of filter will restrict flow. 2. Just because it comes out the drain does not mean you have good flow. Turn off the gas at the sediment bowl and remove the line from the carb, then check the flow. Make sure the screen at the top of the sediment bowl is not plugged. 3. The outlet from the tank could be plugged.

4. There is also a screen inside the carb attached to the fitting that the line screws into -- check that also. 5. Be sure that the float is adjusted correctly, it could be too low.

6. Unless you have soaked the carb in carb cleaner, not parts cleaner, and blown it out with compressed air, you cannot be sure the carb is clean. Put a kit in it also. 7. You are way too lean. Starting fluid simply is not necessary. That type of carb floods very easily, and most of the time the choke is not needed to start, only to keep it running for a few seconds after starting.
