A little help needed here. This is my first Deere, and I love it. I found this machine sitting in a field. It had been there for 8 years had a rusted out rear rim and all tires were shot. Last year, I got her running with little effort. This year after mounting new rubber all around, I went to fire her up. Ran a bit slow at first and then gradually picked up. Now she"s backfiring through the carb. I"ve also noticed the following. After it runs for a while, it takes some cranking to get her started again. When cranking, I notice a little smoke blowing out the exhaust. Just before it pops, the smoke gets a bit heavier. This may have no corelation but these vertical two cylinder low RPM engines are a new animal to me.
A little more info, when it runs, no smoke or funny noises, and no leaks anywhere. I did drive it and it seems to have plenty of power to move along. Also, when I adjust the choke and restrict the air just the slightest bit, the backfire stops and it runs smooth. The tractor also surges on idle.
