Could very well be fuel bowl level or another carb adjustment. The manual for the H carb I have lists the float height as 1 53/64, so you're off by 3/64 inch--not sure that is significant. If this is an H is should be the "D 10" carburetor. Could also be a clogged fuel supply. With the fuel on at the tank, you should be able to open the drain on the carb and get a steady stream of fuel flow out. If it only dribbles, there is a clog in there. That carb also has an idle air adjustment--the screw at the 9 o'clock position as you look at the carb. This is turned out for more *air.* The main jet at 5 o'clock is opposite--out is more fuel. Turn this in "in" for less fuel, but turn the idle screw "out" for less fuel.
I have an H and have rebuilt the carb in it but never had the problem you are describing. My H did have a manifold air leak. Your carb should also have some sort of filler in the little hole at the bottom. You should not be able to see up in there. I think the filler is some sort of felt to allow excess fuel to drain out. Congrats on getting it running if only for a little while. Fine tuning from here.

For several years I had been driving by a farm house on the west side of Indianapolis that had a John Deere combine parked in high weeds in a lot behind the house. The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
