My Dad bought this tractor new and it has always been a PAIN! Hard to start and hard to keep running. Is there a new "bolt-on" to solve these coughing, sputtering, dying, leaking, trouble cold, trouble hot problems?1965 Ford 3000 gas has a Holley Carb [C5NN9510E R-2923-4A (44 ?)

the holley carbs, when working, sip fuel.. however.. most of the time they are not working.
what complicates issues is there are different rebuild kits, and you literally need all the numbers from the carb and the tractor to get the corret kit. incorrect kit will leave you with a non running machine and hair pulling.
finally.. yes.. there is a 400-500$ bolt on compatible zenith carb that turns a wheezing sputtering machine into the real worker it was intended to be..
