Our Family has a Case 2590. 1979. that my Uncle has had in his shed for years; my cousin is selling it and ask me to get it
running. We tried last week...fuel in tank...so I pumped the primer to get pressure...new batteries...it tried to fire but no
luck. So...I loosened first two injector lines on the pump...while he cranked it and gave it a couple small shots(starting fluid)
while cranking. It did run for maybe 30 seconds then died...tried again and then it took off ....not on stating fluid and would
not shut down! He pulled the pull cable and still wouldn't stop running... finally it did die after about a minute. What might be
wrong? I'm sure I did not use too much starting fluid. Im half way scarred tot try again!
