Look at your serial number plate. If it is an original whole tractor the ending of serial number indicates what fuel burning engine it was from factory. X1 I believe indicates gas burner. Distillate and kerosene burners had a little gas tank in front of the main fuel tank and to the right hand side and had an extra hole in the hood for the fill cap and neck of the little tank. The gas burners did not have the extra hole in the hood. Most keros and distillate burners have some what just been run on gas for years and some of the parts such as extra gas tank, radiator shutters, intake heated manifold and such could have been removed. I am not sure if gas pistons will work with a kero or distillate head. Make sure of that before you get some pistons that won't work. Seems like the heads were a little different for gas and distillate.
