I have a 1958 I.H. 350 Gas tractor that the carburetor had a leaking float. I replaced the float and rebuilt the carburetor. The tractor now starts and runs well, however, i am unable to get the tractor to idle slowly.
I have adjusted the speed control stop so that it is not allowing the tractor to idle slowly.
Adjusting the idle mixture screw only changes the idle speed by about 50 rpm. I was told by a mechanic that I should be able to kill the motor by adjusting the idle mixture screw. I am unable to kill the motor with the idle mixture screw.
I have inspected and cleaned the tractor's governor with no change in the idle speed. I could see nothing wrong with the governor and the governor was clean when i opened the cover.
T.I.A.
