several things. If not tuned up recently maybe go thru it with new plugs points, rotor, cap wires, etc.. Check for carbon soot deposits on plugs or too hot or cold a plug. Maybe run a hotter plug or lean it a bit if too rich, depends. Never choke it too much or too long to start or warm up as it will build carbon soot deposits. It may have excessive carbon build-up on the piston crowns and heads or valves. Some guys have told of spraying a mist of water in the carb while running hot to clear carbon. Don't know. Check and set the timing as it may be too advanced. I have an A that when run hard will diesel some on shut down. I usually just shut it down in gear with clutch in and release clutch to kill it quickly when I hit the stop switch. This doesn't usually for me happen unless the tractor has been run hard on a hot day.
