Working on a Farmall 450 gas. Hasn"t run much in the last couple years. Last time it ran (about 9 or 10 months ago) it ran well when it was at about half choke. I figured out that fuel wasn"t flowing out of the sediment bowl fast enough. I would loosen the sediment bowl up till it started to leak and it would run good, tighten the bowl up to where it wouldn"t leak and it would start starving for fuel. Went to start it last weekend and couldn"t get it to start off the starter, had to pull it for quite a ways to get it to fire. Once I did get it running it was loping bad, almost sounded like a old 2 cylinder JD (can"t have that) and was puffing black smoke. It would smooth out some at full throttle but not totally. I tried adjusting on the carburetor screws but got no response out of any of them. It ran that way for quite a while then it acted like it was loading up. Got no throttle response past half throttle. It then died and I couldn"t get it to fire again. I"m sure the tractor needs plugs and wires, maybe points and condenser, and probably a carb kit. Is there something simple that is specific to this tractor that I am missing?
