I've not been able to work on it since Saturday (I'm a pastor, so Sundays are pretty busy for me). I'm hoping to work on it Tuesday evening.
I should have mentioned that when I noticed the float not sitting at the proper angle, I adjusted it so that it conforms to what I read was supposed to be the proper height (parallel with the float bowl).
As a recap, I've replaced all the parts on the carb, adjusted the float level, tested fuel flow through the carb drain, measured the fuel level on float bowl (see picture), hand tested for proper vacuum, measured the compression, and replaced the condensor and points (last year).
The only thing I've not yet checked that was recommended here on the forum is to see if spraying starter fluid into the carb throat will make it run. I plan to check that on Tuesday evening.
Not that it really matters, but I am trying to get this tractor running in order to sell it. We sold our place in the country and moved into town because of work, so I have no need of it anymore.
I greatly appreciate everyone's help and insight. Thank you!

The most memorable event that took place was a trip up the steepest incline on the farm pulling an old New-Idea baler with a pony-motor for power and a haywagon. I had just talked my Dad into buying an old John Deere B with 6-speeds ahead and I was real proud of it, except it was a little smaller than the Case tractor that we normally
