This morning, my Case VA started right up at about 25 degrees outside. Had about three inches of frost above the carburetor for the entire time that it was running. Ran it for about 15-20 minutes and shut it off. Tried to start it about 1/2 hour later, and it wouldn't start. Occasionally it would try to fire, backfired a couple of times, but wouldn't start. Drained the carburetor, and let it refill. Let it sit for about 8 hours (outside temperature made it up to about 35 degrees) and it started right up again. Ran it for about 20 minutes, tried to start after about 1/2 hour, same results. Temperature had dropped below freezing again. In both cases, fuel will start to run out of the air inlet after cranking for a while. Never did any of this in warm weather, so it makes me think that it is temperature-related. Put a bottle of dry gas in the fuel, also. Spark plugs are dry.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
