Back when I was fighting carb problems one of my issues turned out to involve the air cleaner. My tractor had a mix of United Specialties and Donaldson air cleaner components mainly the cup on the bottom didn't match with the rest of the unit. The United Specialties unit as I recall has a shallower cup along with an oil baffle (which wasn't on my Super C) between the cup and the cannister portion of the air cleaner. The Donaldson doesn't have a baffle and the cup is deeper so the fill line is farther below the filter part of the cleaner. I just found a complete Donaldson unit with all the right components as noted in my part catalog and all the sooty stuff went away. Unit then I was changing and cleaning spark plugs every few hours depending on how it was used and there was the ever present black smoke until I fixed that part of the problem. Even after fixing the air cleaner problem the Carter carb continued to cause running and idle problems and in general was a royal pain to work with. Four or five carb rebuilds later (most by very skilled folks) led me to the NOS Zenith I bought and installed. Life has been good again, Hal.
