Success!
After a whole load of brainstorming (some of it on a iron hunting trip today) I decided that I would take one more stab at fixing the carb before dropping the $170 odd dollars on a new Zenith. So this evening I went back out to the barn, took the carb apart (again), and with fresh eyes examined the float situation, lo and behold the float was slightly offset to one side, a closer examination showed that one of the brass mounting tabs was clearly bent. A bit of bending and back together it went, back on the tractor and with slight trepidation, I pulled on the starter. The old gal rolled over and fired off.
It was a good day on the farm. It's been a busy couple weeks,
