I need some help with my M and I knew this would be the place to ask. My tractor has always started the first time it turned over, almost regardless of the weather. I recently pulled the governor off because of a suspected problem, and after I put the governor back on, it cranked for a long time before it started. On top of this, I knew from the last time I had it out, that the valves needed adjusted. Last night, I pulled the valve cover and the spark plugs so I could easily rotate the crank for the adjustments. The spark plugs were wet and black like the tractor was running rich. Anyway, after I made my valve adjustments,I tried to start the tractor. It turned over, and over and didn't want to start. Finally it started with a puff of black smoke. I let it warm up, and shut it off. After about 30 minutes, I tried to start it again, and once again, it turned over and over and finally started with the puff of black smoke like before. It appears that messing with the governor started this whole thing. Any ideas?
