Ohhhhh, let me tell you my side of this red tractor disease. But you can't tell any of the John Deere guys (our little secret). I have been a JD guy all my life. That was all dad had, so that was what I liked. And I have all the JD precision toys, a JD 212 lawn mower, and even a JD front license plate on the pick up. But one day at Portland, IN in the spring I saw a Farmall H. A real nice straight tractor, so I brought it home....oooops!!!! I thought I was doing a good thing so I called the wife about 3 hours away and said very proudly "I'm bringing home a tractor!!!". (DON'T EVER DO THAT!! UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED TO BUY BEFORE YOU WENT!!) So after a very long week with a very unhappy wife, we decided to get her to drive it....it worked!! We can't sell that one now, she loves it. This is when I caught the addiction. She thought those 300's were neat, so we got one of those, then we got a 350U for some around the house work. Then I thought that an HV would be pretty neat, so it came home, and then a 350 row crop. And still no green ones....ooops! They have all been fun, and I have my eye on many, many more to come!! (with approval of course)

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.
