When I bought the tractor a year ago, it had been used infrequently over the last 20 years as it is a 1940 that I purchased from the original owner. The tractor had been "gone over" by a friend of his and ran pretty well, as long as the choke was closed about half way. I initially rebuilt it without using a dip cleaner or compressed air. It still had the same issue. I just rebuilt it again (with another new rebuild kit) and this time, I soaked it in Chem-Dip carb cleaner for 2 days, then cleaned out all holes, etc and used compress air in all areas.
It started right up, the choke works as it should now, I just have the load issue and no effect on the leaning, lean or rich.
Good idea on the vacuum leak, I will check, though I don"t know of many places that can happen except manifold to head or carb to manifold. Am I missing any?
