Does anyone know the FE rating for a 741 gasser? I have a 1967 730 CK gas and I was trying to figure out fuel usage per hour. Is there somewhere I could look this up? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the responses.

I hope pair a dice farms is closer.

I purchased the tractor last year and did some work with her. After about 1 hour of plowing she would miss a little bit like she was starving for gas. Sooooo..... This winter I took apart the carb and cleaned it out. Well, this spring plowing no missing and lots of power, but... she drank five gallons of gas like I drink a can of pepsi. I also notices the carb leaked a little while turned off. I purcased a new throttle jet this week and will try and see if that helps.

I think Tom in Kansas is right on the mark. I have a 1961 730 gasser with a carburator about the size of a small human head and I cannot afford to do much with it. Think about it. At 5 gallons per hour, thats close to 15.00 per hour to run the thing. I use mine occassionaly for lots of power. I have a 12,000lb winch on it and it will move about anything. Yesterday I wanted a rock about half the size of a car to restore a creek bank that had washed out. Although it made that old 730 snort, I drug that rock right where I wanted it. Most fun I have had in a while.

The early 730 gas was tested at Neb. and used 4.9 gallons an hour. That was at rated load, you should use less in the field.

I had a 830 several years ago and my dad had 2 730s they all used about 3 gallons an hour working them fairly hard, baling hay, pulling 12ft disc ect.
