The '65-'75 3 cylinder 4000 only used the CAV pump. The 3000 was the only model during that time that used the Simms pump, and only from 1/66 to 8/69 and again from1/70 to 12/70. So nothing used a Simms in 1975. Your serial number of C192761 should be a 1967 serial number, but they assigned the serial numbers sequentially to each tractor that came off the assembly line, no matter which model it was, so it could have been a 2000, 3000 or 4000 series. Since the serial number is from 1967, and you say that it has a Simms pump, then it may be a 3000 with a Simms pump. Post the other numbers as Unltradog said, and we can tell you what it was when it left the factory. Pictures would help as well, because if your numbers are only stamped into the transmission bell housing, the tranny might have been swapped out over the years, and if that's the case pictures and casting numbers may be the only way to identify it. A picture form the front showing the front axle and steering linkage, plus another from the right side showing the side of the hood and the injector pump would be the most helpful to get started .

Either from a foil sticker under the hood or stamped into the tranny just aft and above the starter. Post all 3 numbers and someone here will help you definitavely ID your tractor. I thought all the 4000s had a CAV rotary pump and not a Simms. Some of the early 3000s did have inline Simms. Others here will correct me if I'm wrong. [Reply]  [No Email]
