For some reason the type of gas that one burns in a Farmall makes a lot of differance as we have learned the hard way . In my area i had a lot of customers that farmed with gas powered Farmalls and i have been the route with problems from running the wrong grade of gas and working a gas powered Farmall . From plug flowing to burnt valves and melted pistons , Carb settings are vary imporant along with timing , With the age and ware on old tractors i have found that almost all have a great deal of ware in the centrifical advance in the dist. and with each point change the timing changes not much but it does change . And with the burning of this new unleaded gas that burns a lot hotter then the old gas of days gone by you have problems . I have spent big bucks having gas lab tested to see why i had a engine failure and after reading the owners manuals on fuel requirement of the tractor found the cure and that is why i use a recomend the use of octane of over 90 as we and all my customers use 93 and it has cured 99% of problems and you can up the timing and that will give a faster start up but you must try to keep the full advance at full throttel from going much over 2to4 drgrees above factory specs. One tool that not many use anymore is a dist. strobe as it is becomming a lost art of setting up a dist with all the transistor and H.E.I. out there everybody has forgot about total advance .

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
