I have a 1948 8N and it has just started to back fire and pop when under a load. I pull out the choke alittle and this seems to stop it. Could anyone tell me what the problem could be and how to fix it. Thank to anyone that is willling to help and I'm sure I'll have her running in tip top shape in no time at all.

I think Claus hit it on the head.
I had points that got pitted causing sparkies at the wrong time.

To me this would indicate weak spark. When was the last time you did an electrical tuneup on the tractor?
Happy Motoring
