[Farmall] F- 20

[birddog]

Sorry, Kevin.  Just read this at 10:15 PM and am going to sleep on it.  
Just my first quick thought though: It may be drawing air at the carb 
where it was taken apart to loosen the throttle shaft.  Sounds like it 
must be related to working on the carb  or a really big coincidence that 
another problem just happened at the same time ..
