I'm sitting in a hotel room right now and trying to visualize your problem. The first thing I would do is check the mag timing. When you are sure that is correct (you've got it running right?) I would look next at your linkage. The mag rod has a fitting on the end that is held in place by a cotter pin. From this fitting there is another rod bent at a 90 degree angle that connects to the points cover. This rod angle should be pointing down then turn to connect to the points cap. This rod should be behind the plug wires. So to make a long story short, if this angle rod is out in the open IMO it is installed wrong. That's the only way I can see for you to operate the mag the way you are describing, unless somehow the main rod had got a 180 degree twist to it. I'll be home later today where I can get a better look at my tractors. If I come up with something different, I'll let you know.
