Started to work on this H for a friend this week getting it ready to paint. It ran terribly when we first got it. Wouldn"t start well...idled terribly...had absolutely no power. I rebuild the carb with a complete kit from CIH. Adjusted the tappet clearance, which was way off to begin with. Seemed to run a little better after that. I"ve checked that manifold for leaks and it seems to be OK. The manifold is a cheap aftermarket one though. Tractor has a mag, I put in new points and condensor. Installed new Autolite 3116 plugs and new wires today.
It seems to start a bit better. Problem is now that when idleing it seems to flutter. This is at idle and maybe about 1/3 throttle. At full throttle it runs great. Took it out for a drive and at full speed it"s perfect.
I found that while idleing I can pull the choke maybe 1/4 to 1/2 and it smooths out and idles great. put the choke back wide open and it starts to flutter again and die.
Do I not have the carb adjusted right? I adjusted the governor and double checked the carb float.

Once started it putted along pretty good. It
