I have a 70 model 5000. It has a Simms inline pump in it. It misfires when it's cold and only when it's cold soon as it warms up its perfect. What could the problem be? It has a brand new motor 4 pistons and rods every bearing cam pushrods all is new. When it first cranks you get the normal whitish grey smoke once tuning it blue smokes a little till warm doesn't seem to be oil. All the injectors change motor noise when cracked. The tractor pulls 8ft harrows in second gear easily and bush hogs thick thick grass with ease as we'll not low on power is low on coming to power not very snabby a little sluggish you could say. Timing is advanced 2 degrees to 21. Could it not be advanced enough making it misfire? Could it have air in the lines? Valves not set right bent pushrod what? Has new lift pump on injection pump as well as filter housing I put a double on it.
