Make sure the timing is right. They'll idle if the timing is off, but give you a fit under power. Once that's OK, check the spark by pulling the boot ends off of the wires at the plug and run her up until she sputter's alittle, then pull the wires off of the plugs one at a time. Hold the wire close to the plug and you should have a nice strong blue spark at each of the plugs. (don't touch tractor while doing this). If you have weak or no fire at any of the plugs, there's the problem. If you got fire, then it must be fuel or compression related. Even the best mechanic can make a mistake. If she blows alittle black smoke when she sputters, it's too rich...if not, she's probably too lean. The carbs on the C's are easy to adjust. Sorry so long...hope is some help...Happy New Year!
