THE ACFT SHEARED THE NOSE GEAR IN A FORCED LANDING OFF ARPT IN A PARTIALLY CULTIVATED FIELD. THE ACFT HAD LOST POWER AT ABOUT 100 FT AGL DURING TAKEOFF.

AFTER THE ACC THE CARBURETOR WAS REMOVED AND TESTED. THE ONLY QUESTIONABLE AREA WAS THE POSSIBILITY OF A SATURATED & HEAVY COMPOSITE FLOAT DUE TO USE OF AUTOMOTIVE FUEL.
