Sounds as if you've done about everything but whatever it is that's required to fix the problem. In your comments below, you indicate that your carb. doesn't seem to have a main fuel adjustment, just an anti-dieseling solenoid. Too much fuel flow has got to be your prime suspect since you're getting black smoke, strong gas smell, etc. There has to be some sort of restriction on the incoming fuel other than the solenoid valve. Most IH carburetors have a main screw - do you have an operator's manual for this tractor? If so, it should have a section about adjusting the carb. If not, buying a manual would surely seem like a low-cost option to all of the other things that you've done. Chances are about 99 percent plus that your problem is in your fuel supply control somewhere. At this point, I'd suggest you again try operating for a while without the air cleaner hooked up to the carb. - too little air flow through it is about the only thing other than fuel supply control which would cause the severity of the problems which you describe. If the problems don't magically go away without the air cleaner hooked up, the problem is almost certainly in the fuel supply control. Good luck, and let us know how you progress.
