Oliver fuel issues

[Dick L]

If you have not found the problem yet, have you removed the plug from the bottom of the carburetor to see if that you have continues flow after you have a pint or so drawn. It sounds like the bowl runs dry even though have good flow at the carburetor. That would seem to be a stuck float or dirt in the float valve. I have had both.

My tractor acted the same as yours. A can of HEET fixed it. I don't use gasahol, so from time to time I need a moisture remover due to humid weather where I live.e
