12J702-1739-D1 Yard Machine Gold Series 27 ton
Bought it from a guy on FB. It has a cracked gas tank that only allowed you to fill it half way or else it would leak out. It ran like a champ through 6 facecords of splitting. Suddenly it just started stalling out after a few minutes. I would restart and continue splitting till it shut down, rinse and repeat. I decided to take the carb out and spray out all the ports with carb cleaner and also emptied and cleaned the bowl. I rtv'd the gas tank closed so it no longer leaks. Now it only runs for 30 seconds and shuts down no matter where the throttle is. (same gas from same can bought two months back and has Ethanol Shield in it)
I ordered a replacement carb but any other thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks
