Take the bottom cup off, remove the entire air cleaner from the tractor. Place into a parts cleaner machine, turn it on, set the hose in where the air breather cap is and let it "flow" over night. The next day take it outside, & dry with compressed air. Don't get too close to the mesh with the compressed air.
Take it back to the parts washer & repeat, only upside down, let it "flow" again overnight, take it out the next day & dry with compressed air again only from the opposite direction. This should remove any sludge, oil, or dirt build up. Re-install on the tractor, fill the cup up to the line with 30 wt motor oil & re-install. Replace both hoses from the cleaner to the carb, and clamps if necessary.
