Are you running a resistor on the hot wire on the coil? Maybe you have burned a wire up somewhere with the new setup. Thats a pretty hot ignition, older wires mite burn up with all that power. the wires with the fiber core burn quick. Put a resistor on it if your not running one,, So,, 4100 rpms!!!! I seen that post earlier,, But I bet thats just high idle right? Probably when you pull, it dont see much over 3000 under a good load on the engine right? If thats the case, put the governor back on it, you can get the IH governor to run 3200 rpm, if that M has a stock flywheel, hopefully its balanced with the crank, and it is good, and you have been lucky,, that it hasnt came apart. If you guys did something to make it safer, then Ok then, we dont have to get into the details, You got a scatter blanket on it at least right??? That manifold wont feed the cyl's evenly, #1 and #4 cyls run leaner, and 2 and 3 run richer. Its untunable for peak performance because it throws the air off so much. Double check the wires, and look for a vacuum leak, if not, put the parts you had on it again, till the problem goes away, then you know whats going on,, get a refund on any purchased parts, or replaced. That tractor would run alot better with a governor,, JMHO,, ChadS
