Tractor cranks but won't start. It fires but doesn't run with a shot of ether. It has clean fuel and the Zenith carb (model ?) was rebuilt and ran a few years back but hasn't been run i years. I got the carb off and the first thing I did was bench test the Fuel Shutoff Solenoid. The needle valve moves free. I energized with 12v and nothing happened and the ohm meter shows a dead short. Is this it or should I go through the rest of the carb. Will this run without the Solenoid?
