Someone said my crawler may have HG tracks, they are not the same as in my new OC3 manual for serials 3500000 and 1W000 and up. There is no tag on the starterless bellhousing, and I have an engine that is marked as both 4 cyl gas, waterpumpless Hercules Engines. Does this show HG parts, or just 1939 Oc3, as the engine indicates?
My issues are
1, instead of having on the final drive cover an iron bearing cover with a fill plug as on page 41, there is only a stamped bump on one side and a flat surface on the other. Did they make one with no outer axle bearing, and should I find plugs on the main cast iron housing when I crawl under it?
2, I have no waterpump, is there a thermostat?
3, since the seat and gas tank block the transmission fill plug, there is a1/2 inch bolt I can access on the top rear of the differential housing in the center, pointing down. If I pull it, will something let go inside? I may just have to fill through the level plug, sure to be a very slow process.
