When i got the tractor it had been sitting a few years. She wouldnt start for me and long story short the oil had been washed away from the cylinders when i was trying to prime the engine thus not creating enough suction to draw up the fuel air mix. With my inexperience to the ole gal i gave her a new carb and intake manifold. i finally got her running but in hindsight i probably didnt need to get the carb. I have the carb set at or near the settings you mentioned. Yes there was spring tension on the gov and i actually have peeked inside to inspect its weights and springs, all looks good and is free moving. the fuel line has been checked for obstructions and is clear . The fuel is fresh and the fuel strainer is new and clean. With the tractor running at idle i can take hold of the gov/carb connecting linkage and run the engine wide open, the gov fights back as i think it should but i cannot achieve the same hi power with the lever. maybe some of that babble will help further. Thanks for the help. Im off to take a look at the mag.
