I recently inherited a 1952 Ferguson TO30 that did not run. After replacing a few broken wires, a dead battery, a coild that was full of water, a set of points, and plugs it now runs. I started it up and let it idle for 30 min...then changed the oil and filter. The problem I have now is that it idles fairly well as soon as I start to increase RPM just a little bit it starts to race on its own to wide open and I shut it down. I cleaned the carb and sediment bowl, no luck. The linkages all look ok and move pretty free. I am assuming I have a governor issue of some type....can anyone help me out?
