: I just bought an old 1940 farmall B and it ran once : before I got it. Now it doesn't appear to be getting : gas because the spark plugs aren't wet. It does have a spark. After I crank it over, gas : pours out of the air intake - this doesn't seem right. : What would cause this? I have checked for vacuum leaks : and it has ran about 3 weeks ago so the cylinders : shouldn't be dry. : My thought right now is that maybe it is getting gas : but the gas is too old to start it up. I'm going drain : it and start with fresh gas : Any Suggestions? IT COULD BE THAT A GAS LINE IS LEAKING OUT BEFORE IT GETS TO THE PLUGS..TRY CLEANING THE CARBERATOR, MAIN JET COULD NEED TO BE BIGGER.
