I  was plowing with my B today and accidentally killed it twice. When it died i had to leave it sit for 20-30 Min before it would start, because of flooding. It is hand crank start.

Help with this.... reason it would immediately flood and solution?
               Thanks for your help, Mark

Either dirt in the float needle preventing it from shutting off fuel when float bowl is full or floats are leaking and sinking letting fuel continue to (over) fill the float bowl.

Take the carb off and clean it really good. Check the float for leakes. If there is no gas in it sloshing around put in in a bowl os watter and look for bubbles. On a side note I have never been able to start my B when the manifold is hot. Let is cool down to the point I can touch it and it will start. Also never had a problem getting it to start when flodded. I have had gas running out the carb and fired it off. Most of the time when this happens I turn the gas off and start it then turn the gas back on. The vibration of the engine gets the needle to reseat.
The joy is in the journey.
