Had an 1800 back in the day. It pulled a semi-mount 5 bottom plow that was used on every field that was farmed. Used regular gas in it. Starting out with a full tank when plowing it would run out of gas in 5 hrs, think the tank held 30 gallons. It may have been under pretty good load since she was running in 3rd gear most of the time and we did not believe in plowing shallow. Every once in a while went to 3 under in the tough spots. That tractor never gave a a bit of mechanical trouble and as far as we know that carb had never been changed from factory settings. At the time it seemed to be gulping quite the gas but at 0.30- .35 / gallon it did not matter much. At today's prices might be different. The 1800 series was probably one of the best tractors made in its time. It was our last heavy tillage tractor that had a gas engine.
