Hey everyone,
First time posting on here. I just got a 1949 Farmall M that I don't believe has been cleaned or have had any maintenance done to it since it left the factory in 1949. I am in the process of overhauling multiple things on the tractor including the carburetor...but i am having issues disconnecting the throttle linkage between the carb and the governor. My shop manual says to just unbolt the carburetor, disconnect the tube from the carburetor that is protecting the linkage to the governor and then the linkage should pull right out of the carburetor (what i imagine to be a slip yolk type of design). But the linkage, in fact, does not pull right out. I have taken the plate with the copper vent tube off the governor to get a look at the governor end of the linkage, but i'd rather not pull that off for fear of having to re adjust the governor once i get it back running. Any input is appreciated
Thanks!
