Greetings: I just want to make sure before I spend money on parts that I am barking up the correct tree. I have a 1940 Farmall A. When I advance the throttle lever forward (i.e. to increase RPM's), I can go 5-6 notches before there is any increase in engine speed.

Thanks in advance for any and all helpful replies. Douglas Stockman Rochester, NY
