I'm fixing up the old cub. It hasn't been used for work in about 3 years. I'm giving it some overdue tlc. It sat outside and absorbed more water than it deserved. I've replace the manifold, cleaned out the carb- has good fuel delivery, and I've replaced a broken governor spring. The tractor hasn't run the same since the new spring went in. It needs choke to start, even when warm. It stalls out easily. Engine sounds good, but it won't work under a load. Sometimes stepping on the clutch will stall it out. On first start up, water droplets spray from the exhaust stack. Anybody have any ideas what may be the cause(s) of these symptoms?

Similar symptoms on my Cub (also let to the weather for a number of years)did not clear up until I did a really, really good cleaning of all the jets and passages in the carb and then sealed the gas tank. The brass port between the bowl and main jet was full of gunk that wouldn't come out with a standard cleaning. Someone on this forum recommended a 1 to 4 muratic acid to distilled water mix to clean the parts. Leave the brass parts in only for 3-5 minutes and the body for a bit longer. Follow up with a dip into a gal of water containing a 1/4 cup of baking soda, and a rinse with hot water. I rinsed the parts with acetone at the end to eliminate water. You may be surprised by the trash that comes out, even after your previous cleaning.

My '57 LoBoy (for sale!) used to do the same thing. It sat for a while before I got it and had water in the fuel tank, glass filter bowl and carb bowl. Once I dealt with all that, it was fine. I still have sediment issues from time to time that clog up the bowl from the fuel tank. Good luck!
