      Final post...I hope

      So after the rebuild it runs when pumped up manually but then goes dry. My mechanic buddy thinks maybe the gasket is holding it out far enough the shaft isn’t pushing the diaphragm. So he and I go out and he’s sure that’s not it. But there is a lot of play before the shaft engages the rocker.
      So we take it apart and redo the springs then back together. Still no luck (after a side trip to figure out why the electronic ignition stopped. Another thread).
      Finally Dave says, “you know, my old tractor doesn’t like any minor changes in the fuel flow. Do you suppose that new sediment bowl screen they added could be it.” I doubt it, but let’s pull it out.
      Runs like a dream. Tossing this little gem. Can’t believe it but the proof is in the pudding.
      Thanks for all your help gang.
