New problem with the 8N. Seems to miss run rough at high throttle. I can smooth it out if I pull the choke out a bit. I pulled the little filter at the carb and it was clean. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance
tom

Sounds like a fuel concern but if the wires are old replace them anyway has the carb ever been rebuilt if it has not a rebuilt card make a old 8N run really fine buy the kit at a Tractor supply and if your not up to it take it to any small engine shop and they will be glad to rebuild it for you most shop have a machine that they can soak all the pieces in a solvent over night and disolve
all that dirt .
I think most all kit has the spec on what to sit the float and air and fuel adj at .

Time for a new set of spark plugs, mayhap. Check the wires, too.

Tom..... ..go out on a DARK night and start-up your tractor. Watch for little blue sparkies dancing on your sparkplug wires. Almost guarantee you, iff'n yer sparkie wires are "hard & stiff" instead of floppy like a wet noodle, ya gotts bad sparkie wires.

Remember: use ONLY COPPER core sparkie wires instead of modern anti-radio static carbon-core sparkie wires. (hint: copper-core is stranded wire, carbon-core is like thread)..... ..Dell

If they show surface cracks replace the wires. Inspect the boots, if they show corrosion, replace the wires.
$15...copper core...TSC...anywhere...not radio...not carbon core.
