Saw this on CL and called the guy.
He says he's downsizing and is selling 4
Fords.
I found this tractor maybe 6? 7? Years
ago. It was a gasser then.
Ken bought it and restored it. Put a low
houred industrial diesel in it.
I helped him find some diesel fuel tank
brackets for it. Helped install the
engine and painted the tractor.
Was there when he pulled the head to see
why it wouldn't turn over.
Mice had put corn in the cylinders.
Don't ask me how.
New head gasket and it ran nice.
Has a solenoid on the pump to shut it
off.
I delivered it. Don't remember why now.
The guy says he never used it. Just
drove it a little now and then.
Anyway.
It's a nice old tractor that I just
happen to have seen before and did a
little work on.
Am glad to see he took care of it.
So is Ken.
Photo shows it when we took some photos
for the ad.

172.
The 2000 light industrials had the heavier 00/01/4000 rear end so could handle the increased horsepower.
I should have made it more clear that Ken sold this tractor about 6 years ago and it's the new owner selling it again.
 

4-5 years ago I put the manifolds on a 172 in my shop then left it for two days. After getting most of the reassembly done I gave it a test turn and it wouldn't. It turned out that two cylinders were filled with mouse bait.
