Here is a link to a Youtube video of me hand cranking my 1948 Field Marshall tractor

Thats pretty neat! Thanks for posting the video.

I thought those used a shotgun shell to start, though. Or was that just older models??

Was there any special purpose to that distinctive shape of muffler??

Was the Marshall related to Fowler brand?? There was a Fowler that sold near here a few months ago...

Thanks....
This tractor does have the 12 ga starting too. The exhaust is a resonator to try to lower the sound pressure level. It does sound very different. And yes Fowler and Marshall were part of the same manufacturing group in the 40s and 50s. I imported this tractor from Australia to Wisconsin and rebuilt the engine.
