I have a john deere mower la140 with a brighs 23 hp motor model 445577 v twin. I replaced a defective head with a new one, set thelash at .007 1/4 past top dead centerif i pull the plug wire while running on the new head tjere's no change in rpms. if i pull the plug wire on the opposite head it will die al low idle and keep running at high throtle, but at thigh throtle it's missing. I swapped coils from one side to the other, but no change. I took a compression yest and both cylinders are at aboit 110 lbs. What am i missing?

I'be already figured it out. It was the carb. I took it apart, cleaned it, and it runs fine. That was a type error. Ilooked up the lash and it was .06- .08 ,so i set them at .07.
