I have had this tractor over 20 years and this year it seems to have excessive engine vibration, sometimes, when the throttle is halfway or more. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. After that it seemed normal, then today ( bush hogging a small field) it seemed excessive.  This is without running the pto or anything.  I don’t know, maybe I am going crazy.

Gas.  I know 4 cylinders vibrate anyway, but this seems excessive, I should remove the plate under the flywheel and clutch and have a look.

Tighten up the bolts that hold the engine to the bellhousing (4). Tighten up the bolts that hold the engine across the frame at the front (4).

Good suggestions, I will check those bolts.  Simple things that need to be checked, thanks.

Crankshaft pulley being loose usually causes a knocking sound.

Yeah, the knocking sound is what told me I had a problem. Had to be at the front end at idle to catch it. Wore the crank nose...turned into a $2000 rebuilt engine.
