    The air cleaner is clean and the choke is all the way open. I will turn the idle screw out some and change two plug wires to copper wire. And see what happens. Dennis

    Th load jet screw setting is when the tractor runs good, then turn in 1/4 turn and the engine starts to die. So I can’t run it much leaner. Also the load screw should be adjusted while under load, like a dynamometer. I need to check the air cleaner. I also see that it has SIPCON plug wires (...

    Live hydraulic pump for 2 cylinder tractors.

    Well it is October and I did buy a live hydraulic pump, not from the guy back in Feb. this setup has a separate tank and control valve mounted on the steering column. Not original but at this point it looks like a good idea. Now my concern is Pete’s comment about the pump disengagement...

    Gas tractor run on (dieseling)

    I know a guy that just bought a 1600 gas Oliver and does not know a thing about it. I will have to teach him how to run it. Anyway, I want to know the horse power of this tractor.
