Just got 'my' first Orange and have a question about the engine number stamped on the Left side just behind the air cleaner hose. This one reads: 45_1112-G Can you tell what year this is and can you determine if it's a WD or WD 45? It has a curved gear shift lever. I've read several of the archives about the WD/WD45 differences and wondered if this number was useful in nailing down the identity of this tractor. Thanks in advance for any help!

As the no. starts with "45" it is a 45 engine. There will not be a large plate bolted to the right side of the eigine either as the WD and WC engines have. As for tractor no., it is on the back of the differential, on the left side, on the machined surface below the brake spring hole. It will tell you the year. 45s had a curved seat support rail with an adjustable shock mount, 3 rows of tubes in the radiator, instead of two. The curved shift lever of the constant mesh transmision doesn't tell much, later WDs had them, it was a running change. As was the tall head before the transmission. I believe only 45 had an oil like to the governor though, not sure though, could have been another running change. Later 45s had extra discs in thehand cluthc, and a "convertable" steering pedestal, could bolt on parts for single front wheel, dual narrow, or steering arm for wide front end. There are other little changes too, you have to read the parts manual and look at tractors.
