1941 Farmall A throttle problem

Posted by Jeff Dawson on July 20, 2003 at 19:35:30 from (205.188.209.140):

I have a 1941 Farmall A which is giving me a little problem. I bought this tractor which was supposed to have been rebuilt. It ran good and I drove it a few miles to my house (throttle worked fine). When I got the tractor home, I found out the engine leaked every type of fluid possible. Turns out the man did not replace any of the old gaskets when he had the engine apart. I replaced all of the gaskets /seals and reassembled the engine. NO LEAKS!!! The problem now is there is no throttle response. The governor spring is fine, and I adjusted the rod between the governor and the carb (pin falls into clevis with throttle wide open, carb wide open and governor lever fully toward carb). I backed out the high speed adjustment screw on the governor (did not make a difference). The linkage is free with no binding. If you put the throttle lever full forward, nothing happens unless you push the rod between the governor and carb. The engine revs up and the governor pulls the rod back. I am running out of things to check. HELP PLEASE.
