Installed a new 6 volt positive grd. VR this morning. When I start the tractor it will charge at a rate of 6 amps at moderate RPMs and almost 10 amps at high RPMs. However, when I shut the engine off (magneto ignition) the points on the cut-out portion of the VR will not open. Tried a different VR--same thing. Rechecked all the wiring, reread the VR installation instructions. Wire from the Batt. terminal on the VR runs to the hot side of the starter. What have I done wrong? Secondly, I have removed and boiled out the carburetor twice, checked the float level twice, replaced the needle and seat,but the engine still isn"t running right. Adjusted the power valve as per instructions, then the idle adjustment. Engine runs decently, but not smoothly. Smooths right out if I pull the choke out about half way. Obviously starved for gas, but I can"t figure out why. Removed the screen from the carb. gas inlet. Sediment bowl and fuel line cleaned. What else would you suggest? Thank you.
