Men, I don't think I gave you enough info. My Uncle bought this tractor in 1963 . It had been changed to propane in 1953, with pressure radiator and aparantly overhauled at this time . Does have flat pistons and I tried to check preasure in cylinders and my guage threads too small.Tractor has been runing well for years and never been overhauled again. A little smoke when starting and then clears,but does use a little oil.. I found out about the different timing when a year ago took all wire off to redo valve side cover.[Clean wire mesh inside and paint]. When putting wires back on the way book says , could not start tractor . Finally put #3 wire on dist. where #1 should be after looking at old picture, and motor ran just like it always did . Good. With so much trouble with leaking tank , I jerry riged to run off 5 gal tank on draw bar. On restoring tractor I decided to put back to gas because of propane diffficultys and not wanting grand kid hurt fooling with it. All that said , this is what burned all my wiring and amp guage and Alt. on super M last fall when I tried to jump it. It pulled too much juice. Now I'm tearing it apart as little as possible just to get in good shape and paint. Hope some of this helps you guys on this problem. I don't know how it ran good with that much play in rotor.... Thanks men. Buck
