I have a Farmall 45A that was running great when I parked it. A few days later I went out to use it and it won't start. It turns over great, and I shot just a little starting fluid into the intake at the air filter housing, and it acted like it wants to run. It would seem that this is a fuel issue, but I'm not sure where I should be headed next to get this running. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you checked the fuel solenoid fuse? Also, is the solenoid valve opening?
No, I have not. I spoke to the service manager at the Case house, and he said that the fuse may be an issue, but they had not ever worked on one and he wasn't even certain as to where the fuses were. I have looked under the hood and didn't find them, and I am not real sure what the fuel solenoid looks like or where it resides so any help with locating those would be great. Thanks again for the help.

I am not familiar with your specific model. The fuse may be under the dash. The fuel shut-off solenoid is near the fuel pump on the side of the engine.
Do you have the op manual?
Do you have the op manual?
I have the op manual. I'll look and see if it's in there. I tried to get a repair manual but they are very proud of those.
