We tried them out today. The H was rebuilt in late fall with domed pistons, new bearings, reground cam (.240 lift), etc. Marty's 70 diesel was mostly as found. I was pulling 2 16s, he had 3 14s. Marty would pull away from me slowly in typical going, making about 500' in an acre. When we got onto hard heavy soil or clay the H would die out and need to be shifted back into 2nd. The JD would smoke like he was fueling it with coal. So far so good. But I need just a little more to keep up. Will rejetting the carb help ? I had opened the main one turn, and that seemed better. How about recurving the distributor ? Any other ideas ? Reliability is a must. This tractor has to keep working all summer. As a last resort, I could buy him some new shares to 'thank him' for helping out. Greg
