Bad coil?? Carbon track inside of the distributer cap? Have you checked the valve adjustment? Just a few things to ponder.

Might be a fuel delivery issue? Might also be one or two of those "new" plugs is no good. Wouldn't be the first time that a new spark plug is bad right out of the box.

I had issues with my allis CA missing and not running right. Took me a while to find the problem and it turns out that the distributor bushings where loose allowing the shaft to wobble. I got another used distributor that I couldent move back and forth with my hand. Running like new now. Its worth checking.

Check the valve lash. Set them at .013" cold. Hal

I had that problem this spring,while cutting stalks. changed points, plugs,and condenser, and still had it. grabbed a can of wd40 and sprayed around the intake gaskets, and there it was. went to napa, and ordered manifold gasket set, installed them, and tractor runs fine.
