2n runs ruff

Not quite sure what you mean by "choking stalls." Do you mean that when you release the choke it stalls, or that when you pull the choke it stalls?

Looking over your photo, the most glaringly obvious problem you have is an inline filter.

The fellow I purchased a '47 2N from had installed an inline filter. When he sold it to me, he told me the tractor lacked power. I brought it home and pulled the inline filter out. Power problem solved.

I also suggest you recheck your firing order 1-2-4-3 and your reset your gap on the points. They easily slip when you tighten the breaker plate screws. They should be 0.015".

Good luck, and post back.

I"ll take the fuel filter off YES i DID SHOOT IT only thing I"ve painted could have used another gallon I set the points on a vise I don"t think they moved cause I checked after I tightend the screws when you choke it stalls can use only a little choke to start it or it will flood
 
Air cleaner seems to be clean. Try this. Pull the air cleaner to carb tube off and see how it runs. If it runs ok that seems to be is just that and you need to clean the air cleaner. Sounds like it is running rich and if the air cleaner is clogged it will cause it to run way to rich
 
had 3 & 4 crossed took fuel filter out and unhooked the air cleaner still doesn't run just right at high rpm sound a little ruff but it starts great now and low and mid range sounda great. Thank you all. now I have to get the original generator from the shop in a day or to and I need it replace the starter gear and hints to this I know not to spin it out
 
Great news! Thanks for letting us know. Good luck getting that ruff-ness out. Might just be an exhaust leak at the muffler/manifold connection.
