Ok I get it about the better oil these days. That does make perfect sense. Thanks.

Can anyone tell me how to adjust the carb so I can get a leaner mix? I can smell too much fuel in the mix when it's running and I've got black soot forming on the rain hat.

You bet it feels good!
I used the factory gap on the plugs (autolite 3116) can anyone tell me what the spec calls for so I can be sure they are right?

I put new gaskets in the carb and a new needle valve seat. I reused the needle valve that was in the carb because the kit from the dealer had a needle valve that wasn't anything like the one I found inside. It seems to work. What things can I do to fine tune the carb any?
The oil looks good in the engine but I will feel better changing it. Do i use straight 30w as I am seeing suggested in other posts?

I would use 10 40 oil of good brand name, 15 40 diesel grade is also just fine. Single wt oil was recommended when the tractor was new because that was what was the best at the time. It is not the best any more. In cold operation, the oil remains thin enough to allow easy cranking, about the viscosity of the lower number, and as it warms the oil just doesn't thin as much as a thinner oil would. It stays at about the viscosity of the higher number. Synthetic viscosity modifiers are used to make mineral (petroleum) oil do that. In pure synthetic oils, (also good if 20 wt) there is no need for additives, and the oil can survive higher temperatures W/O breaking down. Plug gap (if running OK is fine as is. The wider the gap the more voltage is necessary to fire the plug. A few thousandths will not matter at all. Fuels have fewer deposit forming materials in them today, allowing much better plug life and performance. JimN
