1945 Farmall A

[Steve Cane]

hey folks...this is my first post so I try to be brief. I have a 1945 A that ran great before I started the resto. The motor only had about 30 hours on a full rebuild. After assembly and rebuilding the carb twice, I still cannot get any gas into the cylinders. Plenty of vacuum and compression, plenty of gas in the float bowl. I have tried everything I know about engines, not to be cockey but I have worked on alot of engines large and small. Suck, squeeze, bang, blow. Pretty standard stuff. Any help would be appreciated. It is a marvel carb...lke I said, nothing on the engine has changed, timing is correct and plenty of spark and compression. Just no fuel to cylinders. HELP...and thanks in advance.

Loose fit between the manifold and either the head or the carb come to mind as something easy to check, but it sounds more like a fuel delivery problem. Float stuck? Good flow at the line inlet to the carb?
