on our IH 444 gas (in family since new in 1969, was grandpas) it spits and sputters pretty much all the time. the carb & fuel system has been gone thru and most/all of the ignition has as well.
I was wondering if i have a bit of a Cam issue. would worn cam lobes cause spitting and sputtering?
the tach doesn't work (hasn't in years) and it has a gazzilion hours on it as grandpa used if for everything (active dairy farm for 20 years of the tractor's life) but he wasn't a mechanic and was a bit frugal (bordering on cheap) so things didn't get the attention they probably should have including the oil changes. plus before he went into the nursing home it sat quite a bit and used rather rarely and my FIL and Uncle inlaw didn't give it any maintenance either so it could have been a bit sludged up and maybe the cam wasn't getting oil?
no strange noises or knocking. oil pressure light only and it goes off right away once fired up.
