Bolens 1050 engine problems

[madmiked]

I have a bolens 1050 with a wisconsin engine model TRA 10D. When started the engine will idle just fine, but when i try to increase the throttle the engine acts like it wants to stall and black smoke pours out the exhaust. I completely rebuilt the carburator, new points and condenser and spark plug with no luck.
Thanks John

Sounds like hi & low speed needles on carb misadjusted & set too rich or float level set too high,dirt between float needle & seat causing flooding any of the above will cause blk smoke,if carb has hi & idle needles,the usual way to setup is run eng at max throttle & adj hi-speed needle for max rpm & smoothest running 1st,then throttle back & set idle speed & needle for smoothest idle & smooth transition to hi-speed without blk smoke,there is an interaction between needles.

Hi Madmilked
Joe has the right advice, here is a small add-on
"turn both adjustment needles completely in
(closed) and the open one and one half turns.
The engine should run relatively well and can be
fine tuned from there. if not , other carb problems !!
luck
