I have tried much of what has been mentioned here with little success. I have ran it with the air hose off the carborator and checked the air filter and tube which was fine. I run solid copper plug wires. I have played with the carborator until I get crazy. I also run hightest gas and have not noticed any water or debris in the fuel or tank. I am not smart enough and don't know anybody smart enough to play with the distributor much. The 1550 is a good tractor other than this problem. It will keep up with our White 2-70 in the field which will dyno 70+ hp so I don't believe it is a real serious problem or it would not run that strong. I also have 2 Oliver 770's and a JD B which run perfectly on regular gas. I bought the 1550 when I was 16 and I just turned 19 so I still have a lot to learn but I learn a lot from folks as good as all of you who share their knowledge with me. Thanks for all of the information!
