Dave... I dug into the crankcase even before I picked up your post. With your information, I took as much of a look as I could inside the left half of the engine. Of course there is barely any room for me to get my big nugget and light in there, but I did find a lot of metal shavings right underneath on a ledge of the crankcase wall where the bearing cup and that large gear that the cam goes through come together. I tried to remove the cap like you told me, however, I can't get it all the way out. Do I have to disconnect the cam from the large gear with the three bolts that go through it, or should I keep prying the cap off? I was thinking that the cap would not come all the way out until I took the tension off the bearing...am I right or wrong? When I put a wrench on the bolt inside and put pressure on it, I can feel the camshaft twist and move. Maybe it is because of the cup being halfway out and since the bearing is tapered, there is nothing to hold the cam in a true line......Looks like you've been right so far....Thanks for the help, and I hope I get more......AC

Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
