I have good news and I have bad news. The good news is I rubbed a little dope on my flare fitting threads...including the factory installed receiver for the flare fitting...and BOTH ends of my gas line are drip free, no doubt about it. Bad news is that after a few minutes of messing around I noticed a drip on the bottom of the bowl and found that the factory installed shut off valve is leaking. COULD ONLY HAPPEN TO ME! I never touched it, honest!
Further, since the leak is real slow I decided to keep it dried up and try to finally start the tractor. The newly charged battery would not even turn over the starter. I tried to jump it with the charger/starter but this only made it turn over slowly....not enough to start it. SOOOO the battery is going up to be tested and I am having a quick lunch and taking the kids down to the fair to pack things up. Will be back for the WNBA playoff game (girls b-ball is huge in this house) and will see if time allows later to try again. Otherwise....tomorrow.
