You won't believe this but it's true. My neighbor bought a Super H at a farm sale. Had it completely restored, even a brand new steering wheel! Bought a very old N.I. loader for it, used it 3 times and then just walked away and left it sitting, outside for 6 years. One day he asked me to take it to my place for safe keeping and 3 years later I am trying to get it running. The gas had all turned to bubble gum but I have gotten that problem solved. It just won't start. It will run if you squirt ether in the air intake of the carb. There is gas in the carb bowl but it just won't start with gas! What's the deal?

Soak disassembled carb in a good carb cleaner[ like Hydro-seal or equivalent] for 2 or 3 days. then blow out passages.

The carburetor is all gummed up inside. Time for a rebuild.
