I don't know about what springs are in a chevy kit, but make sure that they are the same as the ones that are sold by your dealer. If their tension is a little bit off, they can really make the tractor "fun" to start. Our W6 had one of the springs broken off. The weight was actually rubbing around the distributor base as it turned. It ran a lot better after we replaced them. If the springs are too tight, the timing will not dial back when starting the tractor, leading to kicking back against the starter or the hand crank (the spring would have to be pretty drastically wrong to cause that though). I think that IH offered a revised set of springs for the Super H and M to improve running quality and power , but I am not sure when they were released or if that is really true. Someone correct me if I am wrong. That said, It seems more likely that the carb is the problem to me. How does it start and idle?
