I believe you are hearing normal noises from an uncontrolled gasoline engine. Unburnt fuel (from the quenched areas of the combustion chamber) enters the exhaust system and explodes randomly. It is very noticable with a exhaust flipper rain cap. It will bounce around and dance based on irregular pulses. If it is running a bit rich, it will exacerbate this and do it more, than less. Leaning the mixture screws (both high speed, and low, may help some, but do not make it too lean as this will cause an assortment of major problems. Comparing the fuel consumption of these old tractors to new systems is unfair, so I would just be a bit conservitave,(1/4 turn richer than the point the tractor begins to slow) and live with it. Find other Owners in your area and listen to their units. It is the nature of these fine tractors. JimN
