While mowing my field today, the H died out sounding like it was out of gas. Plenty of fuel in the tank and flowing at the line into the carb. Tried using some ether to see if it would fire up, but no success. I am suspicious of the carb (needle valve?) Any suggestions before I tear the carb apart?

I agree with Hass and Tom. I'll put money on it. The point gap can slip and presto... You stop. I had several points do this to me, perhaps a bad batch. But then in the last few years "no problem".

First thing to check is do you have spark, I've seen/had a rotor go bad and then you is up the creek as far as spark. Also the points could have slipped. Or even a lim could have pulled a wire off. First thing to do is see if you have spark, make sure you have it at all cylinders. Then if you have spark go after the carb.

I agree with Tom. I've had these things just quit while they were working just like you were out of gas or someone turned off the ignition. Points welded themselves together.

If it doesn't even pop with the ether, it's probably ignition, not fuel. Pull a spark plug and see that the spark looks like. Very likely all you need is new points.
