I know the feeling.
I bought an H Farmall on a consignment auction that I could never get to run right. It just didn't settle down and run as smooth as it should have. I went through the ignition, had a couple of different carbs on it, even went so far as to check the valve lash and replace the intake gaskets. Nothing made any difference. I fought it for over a year.
Then one day I pulled the distributor off of my M to replace the points and condenser, and check it out in general. After I replaced the distributor, the M wouldn't run right. I knew right away I'd probably installed the distributor with the drive gear one cog off. I straightened that out and the M purred like it should.
It then dawned on me that when the M was running with the distributor drive one cog off, it sounded just like that H I could never get to run right. Upshot was, the timing on the H was one cog off and timing was the only thing I hadn't checked on it. That little gal purrs like the proverbial kitten now. Too bad the trans is noisy 'cause it's a straight original H, not cobbled up like a lot of them get.
