I have a 47M which I just got running after 5 years, it has a new magneto, leads and plugs. Starts instantly on the button and runs irregular on idle, not missing but hunting. When you rev it up it seems to run fine, I've cleaned the carb and checked it all and seems to be fine, set up as to what manual says. Adjusted the valves to what the manual says also any advice would be good.

inoz - A "hunting idle" can also mean the carb idle circuit is plugged - not unusual for a tractor that's sat unstarted for 5 years.

With the engine warmed up and at idle, try slowly pulling the choke rod. If you find a choke position where the hunting stops the problem's the carb idle circuit. You'll need to take it apart and thorougly clean it - be looking for a blockage attention to the idle metering jet.

Sounds like the bushing are out of the arms inside of the govener and the main spring is loose in the arms . There is suppose to be brass- bronze bushing in the two arms and over the years MOSt of them have either wore thru and fell out or just fell out then also the carb MUST be scynoized to the govener . Now also the whole govener to carb linkage may be to slope and either rebushed or new pices must be installed .
