I have a 1963 MF20. I got it about a year ago and ran it infrequently - ran a touch rough, but otherwise well. This weekend, I started to really put it to use moving dirt and gravel. I noticed after 10-15 minutes it was smoking a bit - white smoke. It also ran out out gas quickly. I did some checking and found a worn fuel line - just a 3 inch piece of rubber tubing. I replaced that a fired it up. It immediately started throwing white smoke and developed a large leak from the bottom of the carburetor, which I believe is the drain plug.
So I am looking for some experienced thoughts on the matter. I am hoping it might just be a bad carb or drain screw, but with the smoking I'm worried it might be a good bit more.
Thoughts?
thanks, jim
