that engine is not that bad. cover the rad if its not getting warmed up with the little use. what plugs are in it now? what are the carbs setting now? main jet on bottom should be at least 3 turns out.your just doing loader work so try 2 1/2 turns out as you say its black smoke. i have many running with 2 1/2 turns out. its in the field under load you need 4-5 turns out. its fully off the seat at 5 turns out. idle mixture i always find 3/4- 1 turn out is where it ends up. good idea on the valve set, .017 hot. plus on a compression check 5 puffs is good. you want to pay attention to the first 1 or 2 puff's as you get your most compression there. plus you need the points set to .020 and the timing set. that thing will run like a swiss watch at 400 rpm idle.
