Bully, I am inclined to agree with you. Reason being I have a 600 ford that did as he said and I frist changed the points. Then after a little while, maybe an hour I had the same thing. My problem was a carb related issue. I crossed two plug wires and of course it backfired and ran fine longer than it did when changing the points. Later I drained the little bulb below the carb and did an unprofessional adjustment without much improvment. I rake hay with this tractor so it gets run a lot now and I think the running a lot helps but some times I still have to peck on the carb or cross wires to get a goood smooth run but not often. I have had bad points to make it stop just like turning off the key. I love these old tractors but I enjoy the trouble free operation of my new 4330....Luck to the guy with the problem and I hope my past has been some help to him......teddy
