1937 Farmall F-20 Throttle Problems

Posted by Mpuller44 on May 06, 2007 at 16:57:44 from (129.21.108.10):

Hi everyone. I have a 37 F-20 that I acquired a few years ago. I finally got it running last year. The tractor seems like it has lots of power, but I don't think the governor is working right. It has almost no throttle response. if it is wide open, throttled down, then opened back up again, it will not rev up. I need to move the throttle back and forth a few times to get it to go. It will pop and fart a few times, backfire, then go. Also, if i put a load on the motor, it falls on its face. It drops rpm's to a certain point, and just hangs there. When I say load, I mean up a slight grade, not even pulling anything. The motor sounds really good, and it was completely gone through before i acquired it. I love the tractor, but can't figure out what is going on. I was told to check the governor weights, and they seem to be free. Any help would be appreciated.

Jonathan
