Posted yesterday of problems with fuel vaporizing in sediment bowl, causing vapor lock on '49 JD "B". We were using it in manute loader service, and not pushing it hard. You could look into the top of the bowl, (from below) and see the bubble of vapor. Last time this happened, back when we had the hot spell in March, son was plowinging with 2 16" plow.
