I have a 16Hp Briggs opposed twin motor on a late 80's Simplicity. I finally got the motor to start and now I cannot get the thing to run smooth. I have followed the manual on how to adjust the carb. i first started at 1-1/2 turns out and adjusted more lean and it runs a bit more smooth. But then I have problems of keeping the tractor running at idle with the lean adjustment. I do have the mower on and I am adjusting the carb under full load. The battery seems not to be charging either. Does that have anything to do with the running problem.
