Howdy,
Just got back to try starting my M thats been sitting over a year. I by-passed all the wiring & hot wired the coil. The sediment bowl was full of "stuff". I drained the tank and carb, removed the adjustment screws and gas line, drained everything and shot choke cleaner in all openings. The tractor started,but will only stay running with the choke closed. I know this has been asked a million times but what is the most likely problem and what are the initial settings on adjustment screws? I tested gas flow with the drain plug removed and I have good gas flow and no dripping from carb when choking or running tractor with choke closed. Tractor is still in rented storage shed boxed in on all sides and I'm getting kind of nervous.
Thanks,
Bob S.
