Becher The 86 series brakes were a little different then the 06 through the 66 series tractors but you said you had 1066.I here people say manual brakes not good, if one understands the system and if all is as it should be have done this many times on 06, 56, 26 anf 66 series tractors the brakes will slide the wheels just as well and fast as power. Having said that all must be in good shape. This means the brake disc the self adjuster screws (MUST) be in perfect working arder the locking clip on the screw (MUST) be in perfect order. When the repair is being done the screw must be free enough to push it by just a finger with out the clip. Then the master cylinder must be in good shap. The way to check for manual brakes is to do as simple test. With out the engine running push one brake peddle down as far has it will go, hold it down as you push the other down if the first peddle drops farther when you push the second peddle you have manual brke on the first peddle, repeat the operation on the second peddle to see if the test works if so you have to good manual brakes. When I ever rebuilt brakes for a customer after I had them working nuder power I always made to test for manual brkes the one I just discribed and then I would find a SAFE place shut off the engine release the brakes let it roll a little way then hit the brake should slid the wheels. AS I Said a SAFE place to do this test.

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.
