Mowed the lawn yesterday and opened the throttle when I was done. Popping every 45 seconds or so. Steadily getting better. Now that I have leaned out the fuel mixture the spark plug has been clean too. The bad news is that now I can see at quick acceleration a little white smoke instead of black. I know it does use a little oil, was just hoping to hold off a rebuild. This winter I wanted to restore my mower deck. We'll see how the season goes.

Quick update. It seems to have settled in to popping every 45 seconds or so. It runs great. A little white smoke on the first acceleration to mowing speed. I did a leakdown test and am still leaking compression past the exhaust valve, but we'll see if it continues to progress. Doesn't use much oil at all, so the rings can't be too bad. All in all a great tractor.
