9N Carb Problem

[cdv]

Rebuilt my carb, on my 9N
Runs great, most of the time
Every once in a while, seems like its starving for gas, trying to figure out what would cause that.

I was having a lot of trouble after rebuilding the carb. It would flood as if float level was not correct. It was suggested to me to replace fiber gasket on needle value with a o-ring washer. It worked ! The tractor starts and runs better.

Well, starving for gas and flooding are at the oposite ends of the issue. I too had success with an oring instead of a gasket. I think CDV's problems are restricted gas flow thru filters or dirt in the carb (main jet?). Or water in the gas?
