I have a 1951 Farmall "M" that came straight off the farm with a three point hitch, wide front, and some very large weights on the rear. The tractor weighs just over 7-k putting me in the 7500 lb class. Pretty high for a stock "M", but it does extreamly well and I win quite often. I just run super unleaded pump gas but I know that when these tractors were built they ran on regular leaded gas. I have access to some "racing" fuel that is around 107 t0 114 octane. Was just wondering if anyone with simular tractors us this higher grade fuel and if it helps? I appreciate your comments. thanks, and have a Merry Christmas
