Is there a way to verify that all there of the cylinders are working on my tractor? It just seems uderpowered to me. I put a more in depth decription in the tractor talk section.

Thanks in advance.

Using a tachometer, with the engine idling, remove one at a time each spark plug wire and note the amount of rpm drop for each cylinder. (on a diesel, crack an injector nut loose to "kill" each cylinder) The amount of rpm drop should be pretty close for each cylinder. If the rpm doesn't fall off near as much with one particular cylinder, it isn't "doing as much work" as the others.

Do a compression test. That should give a good idea.
