Tractor developed fuel issue. Filters new, no water. Runs occasionally. Blows very black smoke. Throttle linkage works fine to what I call a throttle body, but is actually the pump or governor. It will "stick" in full throttle or idle, regardless of what I do with the throttle. Fuel filters are clean, air intake clean. Had run for a few hours since problems developed. Occasionally it will emit a shower of soot. Eventually it goes to idle and stops. Won t start again for days. I was told the "throttle body" or some part of the governor uses weights that use inertia to open or close a fuel valve? And this component may need cleaned or replaced?? Any idea? I m not a mechanic. Thanks.
