Had the coil/distributor off only long enough to clean/paint. Put back on at same location (notched setting), has strong spark new plugs. Anyway it back fired twice, yes back though the carb.

Timing not changed as far mechanical goes. Again any ideas? Last note tractor was running good, did 2 acres with JD227 picker / JD50 sheller under full load.
