I must have not submitted my post. It was kind of long too. It involved finally getting our 656 gas tractor to run for more than 2 minutes. Problem was fuel strainer head was plugged. I took the screen & thin metal cap off where the fuel comes out & didn't put either of them back. Let the fuel drop straight down. Make sure to take the shut off valve off too & use whatever it takes to clean the assembly including air. I installed a clear inline filter kit w/hoses & clamps in the line & the tractor runs again. Don't put the screen back in. The inline filter is very effectve. I did a lot of things to the tractor before this finally worked. This had been an on & off problem for a year & a half. I'm not taking credit for this fix. I talked to a long time IH mechanic who has his own shop & after I told him all the stuff I tried including cleaning the carb more than once & buying points & condenser plus ignition coil & taking the tank off & cleaning it he said that was the problem & it was. I know some people have had the same kind of trouble w/their tractor & not just a 656 so maybe this info can help someone who's having a hard time keeping their tractor running. If anyone does do this the fuel line is 5/16, at least on our 656 which is a farmall.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
