My old slant dash has a weird issue. It
runs very well and has great power. Also
idles good. But when sitting at WOT it
will try to run away if I open the load
screw a couple clicks from 1 1/2 turns
open. I put a 71 carb on it when I
overhauled the engine and fitted with alum
pistons. The carb is not dirty I have been
thru it recently. It will run on the idle
circuit like it should when I close the
load screw. But why is it trying to run
away? When under load the governor is very
responsive and works as it should.I should
add that I just bought this tractor BACK
from a guy that I sold it to right after I
overhauled it. He was in a bind and needed
cash. He had the clutch apart once and
when I got it back it shook bad . He had
not timed the driver to the crank. How
long he ran like that I don't know. Think
anything got damaged from that?
