Hey all, kinda new here. I have a 75 or 76 ih cub 1200. Its honestly the only mower I have ever known lol. My dad purchased it new and I grew up on it. I just picked it up from the family home last year and used it during last winter to plow the drive with. Worked great but was gong through fuel realy fast. So now I am getting it ready for comming winter. Bungied down the tire chains started to actualy put some love back into it. New air cleaner, spark plug oil etc. But again last winter I coudlnt fill the tank and mainly due to the fact that gas was leaking out from the bottom of the carb so I went and purchased a kit for it. I have searched and seached now. I am sure eventualy I will find a video and I am somewhat mechanically inclined and I have a general Idea of how to but I just want to make sure here of how to get this carb off the motor properly. I see the 2 bolts but is there a trick? and what or how do I set the float once I get to that jazz?
I can post some picks of it once I take some but the tractor is in pretty good shape considering after my dad died that it sat in a barn with a damp sand floor for a few decades lol. I do plan on getting another deck one of the days for it and hopefully it'l be running for my grandchildren
Sorry for being long winded.
