Howdy All-
Got a Ford 8-N that runs well.
I recently replaced the top mount solenoid, distributor points and condenser. Points were properly gapped and all ran well for a month.
Here"s the problem:
The tractor fires up and idles perfectly well. However, when I accelerate, the engine starts to pop. The backfires are bad enough that I can"t use the tractor unless its at idle speed.
Any clues as to what would cause this?
I"m a mechanical novice so best to spell it out for me. Thanx!
