I finally got the cub I've been working on over the past 6 years to run! I got this tractor after I came home from Afghanistan(with IA army nt'l guard). It was a basket case so I have spent the last several years buying missing parts and pieceing it back togeather. I had my buddy push start me with it the other week. After a little bit of tweaking on the carb we got it to run. Now I am seeing a small issue that I noticed before possibly coming back to hold things up a bit though. When it is running it backfires out of the carb intake. What I'm pretty sure is causing this is I have two lifters that are sticking a couple of valves open. A friend of mine told me to do both the cold and hot valve adjustments to see if that remedys the problem. Anybody think this will help? My timing is spot on so I know that isnt the issue. I have actually seen the valves stuck open due to the lifters hanging up. I pulled the cover off of the block behind the carb and saw two of the lifters stuck up while all of the others still move. Thanks in advance for any help. I get to go out to the farm to work on it more thursday so we'll se what can be done. Thanks guys!

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
