Ijust replaced spark plugs, wires, points, condenser, distributor cap, and put a new carb on my super c. It started right up but seems like it takes forever when Ithrottle up and I have absolutely no power at all. Before changing I had a miss but had plenty of power.... PLEASE HELP ME!

I had a problem like that on my H before, I had to switch to copper core spark plug wires and non-resistor type spark plugs, I used Autolite 3116. After I did that I changed my timing a little and now my tractor works perfect. Make sure you do not have "automotive type" plug wires.

Andy.

Make sure the spark plug wires are correct

You can assume it's right, but how did the carb come to you?

It came in a small, light cardboard box via UPS or Fedex, didn't it?

Rest assured, your box was treated like a football while in transit... It was thrown, bounced, kicked, rolled, and slid wherever it went.

Is the governor to throttle plate linkage binding? tight?? Could you have left a rag in the intake??? CNKS is right about fuel-bowl level being critical on these.

Carb is probably too lean. Since the main jet is not adjustable, your float level may be too low. Your replacment carb sounds like an aftermarket, Zenith should be correct from the factory. You could have rebuilt your old one for much less money. I don't have a service manual for a Super C. Float height for a Zenith carb on the Super A and C is 1 5/32 with the throttle body upside down. Measured from the top (bottom) of the float to the gasket. I don't have the spec for a Carter carb.

My old carb had a broken flange and was not repairable. I purchased a zenith from this website so I assume the carb is pre set from the factory. I could be wrong.
