Hello, I have a 1972 Massey Ferguson 135, Perkins 3 cylinder, gas.. Been a great tractor. Last summer while bush hogging I ran it out of gas and my problems started. I got it started back up but it ran terrible. Since then gas tank has been took off, sediment bowl replaced, new cap, rotor, points, condenser, plugs, plug wires, coil, and probably more stuff I am forgetting. Most of this was done at a shop when I gave up. Just got it back last week. Been with the mechanic all winter in his garage.He delivered it, drove it off the trailer and back in my barn. When I got home I went out and started it up and it purred like a kitten. I never drove it. That was 2 weeks ago. Last Sunday I went out and changed the oil and started it up to check for leaks. Started right up and idled fine. I thought I would take it for a drive and it ran like crap. It has no power, I cannot get the RPMs up, and it backfires like crazy.I am about to my wits end and spent quite a bit of money so far. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Me and the mechanic who worked on it are scratching our heads.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
