I noticed that after clearing my fuel line, my tractor seemed to sputter a little bit while idling.
I read though my Super C manual, and it described how to set the idle screw. I turned the idle screw all the way in, then backed it out one full turn, per the instructions. I screwed in the throttle stop screw a little bit so it would not stall at slow idle speed.
I closed the throttle all the way and backed out the throttle stop screw to slow down the slow idle speed to a reasonable level. I also tried adjusting the idle adjustment screw, but no matter how I adjusted it, it would not idle smoothly.
The manual says that a small adjustment of the idle screw should let it run smoothly, but I could not get it. I eventually set the idle screw about one half turn shy of all the way in, and I had to choke the tractor a little bit to get it to run smoothly. Once choking it, it idled smoothly and ran better, but without the choke, it will not run smoothly.
I assume this is another opportunity for me to learn about tractors, and carburetors specifically.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
