I don't know the details, but I doubt if any one could tell the difference in power between a distillate and kerosene engine, regardless of which of those fuels was used. All I have read is IH's statement that goes something like "the engine performs best on the fuel for which it was designed". The only important thing that statement means to me is that a dist or kero engine would develop more power on that specific fuel than it would on gasoline. That is meaningless for those still using the tractors now because distillate is no longer available and kerosene is priced out of the market. X3 was kerosene, X17 distillate. I'm not sure IH was consistent with those labels. My 41 H has no X notation. I think the gas X1 notation was used on most or all H's and M's, but almost never on A's, B's, and C's. Jim Becker or Dave Slater can correct me. My 48 and 50 C's both have no notation and both are factory gas. I have already guessed at more than I know.
