I accidentally posted this to the 9N, 2N & 8N forum but not sure if these were used on those vintage tractors or not. I assume they were similar, but thought I would also post here since it is from a Ford 861.
Hello all! I have a Marvel Schebler TSX-706 carburetor with a leak. It was not leaking until recently. With engine off it slowly weeps from the bottom of the bowl at the brass screen (see picture attached). It is not leaking from the plug. I suspect this is from a float needle that is not seating due to sediment or potentially a float with a hole in it? Your input would be appreciated before I dig into it. I've run it a few times and the leak remains the same after sitting. Thanks in advance.
