My " new-to-me" 1960 Ford 861 appears to have a carb issue. It will start OK, but when I try to give it any throttle, it just tries to run away, with regards to high RPM. I took off the carb and disassembled it and cleaned it, and, no difference. I was first thinking it was a governor issue but now I think it is pointing to carb.
I unhooked the governor linkage and started the tractor and when I try to move the carb throttle at all, it goes right to a high rev. No matter how I adjust the jets, it acts the same.
Any and all thoughts will be appreciated. It is a Marvel TX662.
