Randy: I'm not 100% sure but think you may be a bit heavy. I had a trailer long enough for hauling 2 tractors. One night I was moving my 1066 and John Deere 540A forestry skidder. I was taking 1066 home and dropping Deere on the way, thus I had the 1066 on front. At the DOT scales he decided I was too heavy on trailer axle. I was within tolerance so no fine but I couldn't go on until corrected. My trailer gooseneck was such tractor wheels could not be put on it. I said to him, "if I am going to unload these and change them I will circle twice and you record the weight of each" He agreed he would. Because the Deere engine and blade could go over gooseneck, it made me legal. The figures he gave me were close to 11,500 for each 1066 had ROPS cab, duals 18.4x38, cast inner wheels, pressed steel axle duals and 6 - 100 lb. front weights. No wheel weights or chloride. I really never thought we achived a whole lot. I believe he was having a slow night and wanted to hear the differences between a 6 cylinder Farmall and Deere. May be he never bothered to give me the proper weights either.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
