Waiting on the spring I ordered. Also found a dwell/tach meter so gona check my dwell and then timming then adjust cross shaft if needed and move my tinytach pickup wire to the coil wire.also might look into HEI for hotter spark i have already converted to 12. I would just think my tractor should spin out in the #3750-4500 but it just runs out of power

moving tach wire to coil will give you 4X rpm cause it will read spark for every plug instead of 1 cylinder

Ok got my 175 blue strip spring installed compared to the d17 spring I have its a lot more stiff tiny tach is at about 1090 now guessing the tach is not picking up the #1 wire correct. Now next quesr ion if I advance (turn the dist) till the engine starts to run rough then back it off till it smooth es out will this help when the tractor gets under a load?
