The Oliver 77 has been giving me trouble for a few weeks now. It was just dying intermittently. Might run several minutes or just a few seconds. I suspected the switch. I'd flip it off and right back on then it'd start right back up immediately. This morning it died and wouldn't start. I took the cap,rotor and condenser to town. I told Jeff what it was doing and asked if he thought it was the condenser. He said it sounded like it. I got one,put it on,it started and I got cattle fed.
Now the problem. It isn't running like it did. It sounds labored and is blowing chunks of carbon out the exhaust. When I rev it up wide open,it revs up alright,but it just seems like it takes slightly longer to get up to full speed and when it's speeding up the black smoke rolls out of it. Once it's all the way up to full speed it doesn't smoke. It sounds a little labored at idle too and is just slightly shy of power.
Why would just changing the condenser cause that? He didn't even have a cap or rotor,so I put the old ones back on.
