'39 A JD with no power...

I was wondering if someone could give me some pointers... I just bought the tractor and it needed a manifold gasket. With that installed now. I've read the operators manual and set the idle and load screws to about where they say to put them and the tractor runs horrible. If I adjust the carb to get the tractor running somewhat nice, the tractor has no power. I think the linkage needs help too...there is only two settings 'idle' and 'full' throttle. There is no midrange. It has excellent compression, good fuel flow, and good timing/spark. Thanks for any ideas

Thanks. I already cleaned and re-cleaned the carb several times. I was hoping not to look into the govenor, but it must be time...

Thanks,
Daran
