[AT] Tractor Question - 420 JD

[Dean Van Peursem]

Paul,

It sounds like one of the carburetors internal passages is still blocked. Looks
like it has the correct carburetor on it. See info below.  I would recommend the
following place to get your carburetor properly cleaned out. Roberts Carburetor
Repair in Spencer, IA.  They live test the carburetor on a running engine after
they work on it to make sure it is right.

Hi All

I have a 1956 'Green' JD 420.  I have always had to run the choke out quite a
ways. I have rebuilt it, had it rebuilt and still same thing. I have it off
right now from dirt while bush hogging tall grass, and I wonder if it even has
the correct carburetor on it.  The brass tag reads TSX 641, second line 256.  If
this tells any one or they can guide me to a website.

TX Paul in IN
