Something keeping the float open...

Cleaned it out. But gasket weeping. Opened again. Made new gasket.
Leaking through inner gasket. Opened it up again and changed it out.

It still is seeping in some places and at some connectors. But if the petcock is closed it stops.

So I'll run the engine first and seal it all over again when I paint the engine...

it is recommanded in the operations book of the tractor to wash the steering clutch cases if cluthes were slipping ( by oil that worked in to them from bevel gear or final gears)

to clean them (according the book):
drain oil from transmission and final drives
pour 1 gallon kerosine or gasoline in each steering case
operate tractor fort and back without disengaging steering clutches (to avoid grease or oil work in them)
drain this baths
replace plugs
fill second time with 1 gallon each side
tie back both steering clutche levers
with engine running and gears in low speed allow cltches to revolve 5 minutes
remove plugs
keep clutches disengaged for several hours to let them dry
refil transmission and finals again.

Frank,

I have a hard time getting my float to work correctly and not leak. I have put a rebuild kit in it and tinkered a good deal. Basically, after I open the tank valves, the chamber fills up and starts overflowing. I take a screwdriver handle and tap the bowl which usually reseats the needle valve and it then works fine. They are very temperamental.
