I have a few questions about my 41 H, and they probably are not important, but I'm still trying to decide which way to go when I rebuild.
1- Did 1941 Farmalls have the cloth covered spark-plug wires with open clips on the plugs, or had they went to rubber wire by then?
2- My H has two starting switches-one on the steering post beside the electric box, and one on the bottom of the rear fuel tank support. Was ther one on the tank support origional, and the one on the starting post added later?
3- Is it hard to find a starting gas tank & plumbing for a H, and where would I look? The hood has the hole for the tank, but the tank is long gone. I'm guessing there were a lot of conversions to gasoline years ago, and most of the tanks were probably thrown away. I found a part number stamped on the head for a gas head, but I can't fing the casting number. The parts book says that the valves were different, so I think I can tell for sure if it is a real gas head, or some dealers counterfit.
3- Has anyone sucessfully replaced the mouinting studs on the bottom of the radiator, and if so, where did you find them? Local dealer says they are no longer available. The local bone-yard guy says it's very expensive to have them replaced-cheaper to buy a new radiator? The radiator looks good, only one small repair on the inside in one tube. About the size of a quarter. It doesn't leak because it had antifreeze in it for years before I got it. One stud was missing, and the other one was about the size of a match stick. Twisted off real easy..
Thanks in advance for any info any one can give.
Ken

Silo Filling Time On dairy farms back in the 30's and into the first half of the 40's, making of corn silage was done with horses pulling a corn binder producing tied bundles of fresh, sweet-smelling corn plants, nice green leaves with ear; the
