Well I always thought that black soot from the exhust was the norm. Are you saying that the pipe should be clean? If so mine is not. If it isn't smoking then I'm sure there is some but under the work and age of the tractor (some 50 years) and any hard work or neglect prior it seams normal. Puff here and there mostly after getting into a load or just giving her the gas.
I haven't really done a timming to the old girl and maybe that should come this summer. I think I understand the concept but where on this tractor is the tdc location? I could check that with a light? Or is it something I need to see in a hole or something?
Thanks for the advice regarding getting the carb to some spec before I put it on. I will have to get it fine tuned in before I really run it this spring. Now if other things are done say with better timming will the carb also need to be adjusted to the new settings? If so I guess the fine tunning will be for just this install.
It will be sad but the best part on the tractor right now is the carb. I took the time to really give it the going over. New paint and all now the rest of the tractor looks like it's old and in need of something. Think I have started something? Maybe bad? I think so. Thanks for your help.
