Engine Sound W/ Vid for ref

Ninety-two · Aug 20, 2017

I haven't fired up the tractor for a couple of months. I changed the gas and fired it up. I noticed a sputtering type sound I don't remember hearing before. Here a link to a vid.

I'm wondering if anyone has any idea what could be causing it.

Also does it sound like it is idling too fast? I don't have a proofmeter so I go off sound. It seems fast to me.

Are you guys able to see the vid on youtube?

Sounds like a tractor to me.

I was able to view the video, but have no guesses. Sounded good out exhaust and not to fast of a idle, I could hear a "thumping sound when viewing exhaust manifold. I guess that's where I would start putting my hand around to see if there is any hot gases escaping, like muffler clamp, gasket on manifold, however the sound seems internal.

Nice looking tractor.
Since it sat a few months, I would clean and re-adjust the points.
The idle wouldn't worry me, but I believe it is just a tad high.

Here's a [b:95153aef4e]Link[/b:95153aef4e] to your video.

I did. Checked the plugs too! Nothing there to alarm me. Seems to run fine too. Took it out and opened it all the way up thinking maybe it just needed to burn out some crud. Ran a mile down the road and a mile back 4th gear full throttle. No issues. noise disappears at higher rpm, returns at low throttle. I don't like mystery noises in my equipment.....it's unsettling.
