That's a common thing with Deeres, but I'm wondering why the pump guy didn't tell you to check the timing advance while runnning instead of advancing the static timimg. I don't know if you've got the Standdyne or CAV pump, but either one can be checked while running, and adjusted.
As I recall, we had quite a bit of smoking and cold starting problems with all the 40 series tractors when brand new. We had to change the fuel advance in them, also many had too much valve recess in the cylinder head which had to be fixed by installing seat inserts and/or milling the head. At some point in time, Deere came out with retro-fit repair kit that used pistons with a higher top ring height and a little more piston top stand out. The kits solved a lot of the problems with smoke.
