I have a 1954 Super C that I bought about three years ago. The problem that I have is that when I am mowing my four acre property, the engine speed keeps changing. I will be mowing along and the engine will rev up and I will pull back on the throttle lever a few notches and slow the rpm down, and about 15 or 20 seconds later the engine will run too slow. So I move the throttle lever up again a few notches to the rpm that I want, and about 15 or 20 seconds later the engine revs up again, and back and forth I go all day. I know I have a carb problem because I have to have the choke closed a little for it to run without sputtering. It has a CARTER UT 0-653 carburetor. Should I buy a carb kit for this or would I be better off buying a ZENITH carb? Also, someone has changed the governor housing off a 240 to my Super C, so I'm not sure that the linkage is adjusted right. I think the reason for the 240 governor housing is so they can add oil to the tractor because they cut down the exhaust tube as well as the rocker cover and air cleaner tubes. I have two manuals and one said to insert the pin when the holes line up and the other said to extend the rod one full turn, then insert the pin. Which one is right? I will try to upoad Photo's.

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
