I have a very nice 1950 M "Barn-Find" in excellent original condition. It had not been run in over 20 years when I got it from the original owners family. The rings were rusted to the cylinders when I got it. I replaced the pistons and rings, sleeves, brgs. ground the valves and seats etc. etc. All new points, cond.,etc. the carb was badly rusted internally so I did a deep cleaning using muratic acid to desolve the crust, It came out well. This tractor STARTS RIGHT UP AND PURRS LIKE A KITTEN all rpms BUT if you snap the throttle open or load the eng it sputters smokes and stalls! You can ride around the pastue on it all day as long as you don"t throttle up quick or load it. I have tried the points @ .013 & .020, checked the timing, been back into the carb several times and tried every possible adjustment and cannot figure it out ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED to get this piece of iron history back in action.
