Last night I had a little accident on the driveway while backin up to get a salad bowl I fergot. I dropped my front tire in a ditch and had to get the MF50 to pull meself out. Well I started it up and drove off about 30 feet and it stopped and I jest couldn't start it. Well I said "lets wait till tomorrow when the sun is out and well fix it. This morning I went down and it fired over and ran for 20 seconds and stopped. I looked at the ground below the tractor as I got off and saw it was full of fuel and the transmission case was also. I shut off the supply to the sediment bowl and notice that the bowl was full of ice crystals! Now I have to tell you that the outside air temp was 45 degrees. I knocked all the ice off, drained the fuel line, shut off the petcock, put the bowl back on, opened the petcock and started the engine and everything was ok. What the hell caused all that?
