I started off with on of those engines on a 68 NH and still have one on a 14T JD. Things to check- crap in the fuel tank plugging the line, plugged fuel filter at the sediment bowl, bad fuel pump diaphragm, crap in carb, bad plugs, plug wires, garbage in the cooling fins. Keep up with that stuff and she'll do a lot better. There is no distributor on a TH series Wisconsin. You have a mag that needs good points, a good condenser and a good cap to keep the moisture out. Those things should run all day baling, idle down fine for break time and break downs and keep going all day long as long as you keep fuel in it. Don't try baling until you get the thing running at full speed. Running a baler slow makes things real hard on baler and engine. That flywheel is big and heavy for a reason. Get you plunger knife nice and sharp and set right. Get some oil into the plunger chamber, even used oil work good.
If you have to, take the fuel tank off and have it boiled out and coated inside or put a hand full or clean gravel in there and shake it back and forth for an hour, then rinse it real good and coat the inside yourself. There is no filter on the end of the fuel line in the tank that I've ever found, so if it's not clean in there you WILL have problems.
The old baler are slow and small but they can be made to do good work.
