: My Allis Chalmers D-14 hadn't been started all
: winter, so I drained the fuel, and replaced with
: fresh gasoline. New plugs, points, cap, rotor,
: condensor. I also converted it to 12 volt neg
: ground. So it also got new coil and ballast
: resistor. I cleaned the oil-bath air
: cleaner thoroughly, and refilled with new oil.
: It starts great and runs fine. As long as there
: is no load on it. After putting a small load on
: it (just driving it) the engine will start to run
: rough, then start surging. It will speed up,
: then slow down. To the point of jerking back and
: forth. Anybody have any ideas? I'm stumped.
: I've never had problems with the governor before.
: Maybe it's not the governor causing it. Any
: suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I agree with the others - it sounds like a partially plugged fuel line. I currently have the same problems on my wd45 after getting it started after it was stored for 6 yrs. Junk in the tank keeps plugging the fuel intake at the tank. I'm going to take the tank off to clean it out.
