Well guys, I got the carb for that Allis WD all cleaned up and put in a new rebuild kit. (The photo enclosed is after I cleaned it, and cleaned the OLD parts). There was a lot of rust scale in the bowl. There must have been some water in it for some time at one point. Seems to be running really strong, but still has a pop/misfire coming from what I believe to be #1 exhaust valve/port. I'm thinking this tractor is good for an overall once-over. Head work, and probably a top end with 90-95 PSI in the cylinders (due to what I have gathered from you all).
Tractor does not smoke at all, though. I told him to run non-oxy gas in it and see how it pans out. For now, it seems to be running pretty good. (I apologize for the poor video quality - cell phone was all we had at the time).
Maybe a manifold leak as well? - but I can't seem to get any change in RPM when spraying it down with Carb Cleaner and propane near all manifold connections.
