The advance mechanism on this tractor is mechanical and utilizes 2 weights that are attached to the breaker shaft (which slips over the distributor shaft) and precision springs. As the rpm of the shaft increases, the centrifugal force on the weights increases. This causes the spring to lengthen and the advance curve to change correspondingly. Problems with the advance system will cause backfiring or kick-back at start up or hard starting depending on where it is stuck. You need to remove the plate behind the points to be able to see the weights. More than likely a spring broke or the peg wore or broke. Also, you cannot replace the springs separately, so you have to buy two of them, and don't try getting ones from a junk yard, because those springs will be in just as bad of shape.
