Rich, Something may or may not have gotten swapped on your tractor over the years. Distillate suffixs should be X17, 5000' distillate X17A, 8000' distillate X17D. X3, X3A, X3B, X3C, X3D, X3F, X3G, and X3H were also suffexes on variations of kerosene or distillate tractors. The X5 on your tractor is kind of confusing. X5 is listed as 5000' altitude which one would assume was for gasoline but fuel is not stated, and you say your tractor is distillate. However X1B is 5000'gasoline as is X1E, and X1J and X1L. All references to fuel type have 1 in the suffix for gasoline and 3 or 17 in the suffix for kerosene or distillate. Another example of often confusing IHC logic. Harold H
