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.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
