I have been on this discussion board before and had received really good feedback on a problem that I have had with a gas IH 464 tractor and tried different solutions. Without going into all the details of what I have tried already, what can cause a gas engine to run too rich ? Or, putting it another way, what can cause the plugs to foul out within just a few days of operation for short periods of time. I just had the carb overhauled and flow tested and it checked out OK. What other things can cause an engine like that to run too rich ? I am just about at my wits end to find the problem. Several garage mechanics have tried and failed. What is bad is that if you take the tractor to someone to fix it, it is a while before you find out it is still doing the same old stuff. Help. Will try anything, including selling it to some poor soul. Thanks.
