I bought a B 414 that was smoking to beat the band. I'm assuming that you have a diesel, too. Three of the injectors were malfunctioning and one was just "peeing" on the cylinder. Got them rebuilt for $75 a piece. Wish I had tried a quart of automatic transmission fluid in 10 gal of diesel first...but you know, hindsight and all that. The air filter was clogged. I found that the tractor smoked little to nothing with the air filter off...just don't run it in the field like that. That was just for troubleshooting. I'm assuming that you have an oil bath filter. It is probably dry (no oil in the bottom). Take the entire thing off the tractor and put it in enough diesel to cover the steel wool looking filter and let it sit for a day or so. You don't need to rinse it, just let it drip dry. Reinstall on the tractor and put about a third to a half quart of oil in the bottom section. The air flow pulls a little of the oil up onto the steel wool and makes an efficient dust and grit filter. Service this about every 50 to 100 hours in normal service, 10 hours in dusty. A clogged air filter, even a paper filter, will affect performance just like pulling the choke on a gas engine. It has the effect of overfueling the mixture in the combustion chamber and smokes up the neighborhood. These are great little tractors, very powerful for their size. Suggest you get a service manual and an operators manual, about $60 total. They are a lot of help in operating the tractor to the max. Hope this helps. If not, just ask again, we'll all kick in a suggestion.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
