The 241B is supposed to be the best carb for the 8N. There was a 241C that was dumped by Ford and they fell back to the B version. I was reading some tech support bulletins and found this:
The operation of tractors equipped with the TSX 241 carburetor, in which the engine tends to "stumble" either while idling or when placed under load, can be improved by installing the economizer jet, Part No. 8N 9914. The installation of this jet, along with proper carburetor adjustment, will, in most cases, correct this "stumbling" condition.

Did I understand you correctly that your idle jet is only turned out 1/8 of a turn?
