Dead F20

Posted by Bruce Simmons on July 28, 2000 at 03:58:11 from (216.179.5.98):

My F20 had been running OK, but had become
harder and harder to start. Finally died. Will not even pop.
Checked spark, found it weak. Replaced points,
condenser, coil, plugs. Checked carb and re
adjusted. Adjusted valve lash .018. Checked
fuel flow. Good flow to carb, but no gas
getting to cylinders. Discovered that there is
no vaccuum. There's a leak somewhere, right?
But I can't find it. This tractor was running
fine, so whatever happened, happened quick.
As a non-mechanic, I've about run out of ideas.
Can anyone out there help? By the way, did compression check. #1 72 lb., #2, 70 lb., #3 66 lb
#4, 72. Is this high enough? Seems pretty even.
