It's nothing. You don't want it. I'll give you $10 just so you don't have to deal with it any more.





*edit, I see some people already told you the real value.

That is the starting tank. Used on all fuel/kerosene models. You put gas in the small tank & distillate or kerosene in the large tank. The tractor starts on gasoline, and then you switch it over to distillate or kerosene. That was cheaper a long time ago, but now most all of them run on gasoline.

You lucky dog. Most of those small gas tanks have long since been trashed so if you still have one you have a good bit of $$ under that hood. Thats is as the other guy said your gas starting tank and the bigger tank is for kero

the smalltank, about 7/8 of a gallon was the starting tanks for gasoline on a distillate or kerosene tractor. , you would start the tractor on gas, let it warm up, then close the valve to the gasoline tank and open the valve on the main tank to switch to the other fuel

beth, if this is your tractor, it may have been converted years ago for gasoline. they would switch cylinder heads for higher compression, altho, it will still run on the old head. it may or may not still have the shudders in front of the radiator too.
