John Deere tractor engines from the 50's are NOT "hit and miss". If there ever was a Deere "hit and miss", the only tractor that could possibly fit that description would be the prototype "Froelich"', from the 'teens. That term is used to describe older "flywheel" stationary gas engines that do not have a throttle butteryfly in the carburetor.

Instead of the governor being connected to the carburetor, on a "hit and miss" engine, when the engine reaches governed speed, the governor latches the exhaust valve open, and typically also shuts the ignition off, and then the engine coasts until it's speed drops a bit, at which point the governor unlatches the exhaust valve, and restores the ignition.

Rather than call the Deere tractors "hit and miss", call them "Johnny Poppers".
