My 1951 8N Ford acts like it is flooded the first time it is started when it has been setting for more than 24 hours. If I keep cranking it will eventually hit and sputter for a bit before it clears out and then it runs fine. After the first start to start it again all I have to do is bump the starter and it takes off just fine. It has a 12 volt system and this problem just started. Nothing has been done to the tractor other than fresh gas and oil change. I use the tractor to mow my lawn. Could a shrub or tree limb have hit the carb and knocked it out of adjustment? Thanks for any advice.
