This winter I took the head off my '54 Allis B and had the valves done, new valve seals installed and had the head milled back to flat. (there was a 0.004" warp between cylinders 2 and 3. Up to this point the tractor ran flawlessly other than smoking at low rpm. While waiting for the machine shop I ordered a carb kit from YT and cleaned the carb and all the jets. Now, the tractor will run, but not smoothly unless the choke is nearly full on. I can get it to idle smoothly but if I increase the RPM much at all it starts to stumble and run rough. I have replaced the spark plugs on it with both A/C and Autolite and both run the same. I installed a new petcock and fuel line as well but I cannot get the lean condition to clear up. I did remove the idle and "economizer" jets and cleaned them but I took pictures and am 100% certain they went back into the right place. The longer jet was the one I used in the bottom of the float bowl and the shorter one is the idle jet. It is a M-S carb with a non adjustable load jet.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as mowing season is rapidly approaching.
