I am brand new to tractors. I have a few friends that antique pull and thought I would try my hand. I bought my first one last week, a 1941 Farmall H. Anyhow the motor ran like a swiss watch and started after half a turn before. Well I power washed it and now it runs quite rough and blows black smoke. I checked the distributer cap and it didn't seem to have any water in it but I dried it out and took the coil cover off to dry for most of the day. I also checked all the plug wires and I didn,t knock any loose. It seems to idle fine but when I run it up it runs rough and smokes like a chimney. I am a pretty good auto mechanic but his is my first foray into diagnosing a tractor. Could it be a governor problem? Any help is greatly aprreciated
