For all that don't kno, it was the spark plug. I got her running and she was sparking in the electric area, so i put a box on the back for the battery and ran all new wires and such. Now it is completely rewired. And she ran good, after i changed to plug, then i did this and she ran bad, but i thought she was cold, so i warmed her up and kicked it in hi and went to my neighbors drive way and reved her up a little bit. and flames shot out.
HELP!!!!

Flames shot out the exhaust? Like gas that is burning in the hot exhaust? Caused by bad timing or bad connection in someplace of your whole ignition system

 

[case13]

Yes FLames shot out of the exhaust :dunno: :thanku:

Try cleaning and adjusting your points. If you are not getting spark for the correct duration at the correct time that would be my first guess.

A little birdie told me that i could be running to lean? :dunno: :thanku:

 

[case13]

So is the birdies wrong?

Look at the sparkplug ...... that should answer the question .... black, brown, grey, white .....

:howdy:

 

[JB222]

Did you check your points?

From the 1'st post "And she ran good, after i changed to plug, then i did this and she ran bad,"

Did you use the correct plug?

I was getting backfire and pops before I replaced my points. That problem is solved.
But clean and adjust the points of you can. If the gap is narrowing you would be getting some backfire through the carb.

[RestMyCase]

Too Rich ......

:howdy:

 

[case13]

So i should?

 

[JB222]

Adjust your carb, check your air filter, stop running it with the choke on. If you are running without choke and your filter is decent adjust the carb. There are many posts on here that will give you instructions. You can also try to find a service manual for your tractor/motor.
