Thanks to everyone for the tips and advice. I ended up cleaning every component in the fuel line and increased the fuel flow from about a third of a pint in three minutes to about four fifths of a pint. There is only a single screw on the carb and it makes no difference where it is set. The plugs are clean, grayish residue on them, not black. It runs a little better now with the mower engaged, but it is not up to par yet. I put a tach on it and found it only runs 400 rpm at idle and a lethargic 1050 rpms full throttle. I did try adjusting the governor per the manual, but it did not increase the rpms. It blows plenty of blue smoke out the stack, and it seems to burn a quart of oil every five hours or so. All things considered, I think Ill be changing out the piston rings. I will post more on the Farmall page as I get into this tractor deeper. Dave
