Repairing a ford 3400 for a friend. Was running poorly. Wouldn t rev up. Another person replaced the stock Holley carb with ?? Not sure of. Had a gas leak they thought it was carb. So replaced it. Still had a leak. Called me into help. Found leak in fuel pump. Replaced it. Ran better. But had a skip in idling. Ck points. They were worn down gap off. Bought ingnition rebuild kit. Cap,dust cover,points,condenser,wires and plugs. Installed them all, fired up tractor. Ran very nice. Idle fine and rev up. Warm up for a few minutes. Then put in gear to back out of barn. Started to cough & sputter. Not rev up. Ran very poorly. I did not replace the coil. Have one I bought. Not sure if this tractor is supposed to have a internally resisted coil or not. Couldn t find a resistor on tractor. Bought coil 12v with internal resistor. Is this correct for a 3400.
Also when I pulled the plugs they were white as a ghost. Makes me think it s starved for fuel at some point. But ran fine till reverse to back out of barn.
Any ideas we ll be helpful.
Considering to put original Holley carb back on after a good cleaning.
