I don't know if the problem is with the carb.,plugs, gas or timing, however, on start up of my M and 300 I get heavy carbon like smoke. I have had the carbs. checked. This will not go away until tractors are put under a heavy load. Any help will be appreciated.

Who checked the carbs? Was it a IH dealer? Even then there are not many that have a clue how to set the timing on a static timed engine. They all thing you need a timing light and some set it by ear. This may work fine on an old beater chevy farm truck but not a tractor. Find out what your timing specs are. I think it is 0 but not sure. If it is we can walk you through the right way to set it. Check and clean your plugs. I use champions in my farmall. I think they were 21 but it has been so long since I changed them I honestly forgot. You also need to check the points and make sure they are set right and not burned. It does sound like a fuel problem but often can be a weak of off time spark.

Carb was checked by a farmal machanic. I use Champion 21 plugs and gap them at 23. Have new points gapped at 20. Do you think it could be th oil bath air cleaner or just the gas we get these days?

I know on the farm that some engines don't run worth a lick unless they've been pushed and whipped into shape. Kinda like some hired help we've had over the years. Darn kids don't want to do anything these days, and if they do they think they're worth a bunch even though they're green. Anyway, I believe every engine has its owsn personality you have to get to know just like any person. Don't sweat it too much, bud.
