I asked this once before and people gave some good thoughts - unfortunately they were mostly things I had already done so I'll ask again. Tractor only runs with choke about 2/3 on but runs perfect. No smoke, no skipping, starts easy even on 6V, been using it like that a bit. Bought the tractor as a project and did the following: valve job, new manifold and gaskets, new rings, timed the distributor, adjusted governor, set and reset valve clearances, steady stream of gas when I remove the gas line and carb plug, been through the carb twice - ran a torch cleaning tip through all passages, had everything apart and ran solvent through all openings, including removing and cleaning the jet. Obviously either too much air or not enough gas. Runs the same with and without air breather. Choke opens to correct position. I've got to think its not getting enough gas but can't figure how. Checked all gaskets for leaks. Its not my first project tractor (not the second or third either). Can't figure this one out.
