I ve got an issue I want to run by you guys. I have a Jubilee and had many problems in the past with sediment clogging fuel line. (yes I know Im going all the way to the beginning but... never know info may help) I emptied tank and took off and got the sediment and rust out of the tank and reinstalled. at the time they had some aftermarket pepcock on the unit.... I installed it with a proper sediment bowl.
Now even after rebuilding the carb im finding as the tractor sits the carb bowl must leak out to emplty so when I want to use tractor I have to open up the fuel line and fill the carb bowl first so to speak. I notice this takes long time!! I realized the other day that the sediment bowl has 3 ports on it. the Line out to carb and the turn dial switch and a closed off hole with a cap screw installed on it. I opened that to see if it was clogged and if gas was flowing and by opening that I let air in so the gas would flow better. Since then I find that if I keep this not 100% tight to let air in / out of the system gas flows better.
I ordered a fuel line check valve to install to let air in but not gas to leak out of that third "port". is this usual. I had a 8n before this and didnt have an issue with gas flowing properly and sediment bowl was not "messed with" at all to allow gas to flow better. What am I not getting???/ or doing wrong. the other set up did need "air" inlet to allow to gas to flow??
Thank you for any input. I hope I explained this properly.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
