Thanks for all the help, I performed "level 1" degreasing today. Some of that stuff was so tuff, it was like trying to scrape the dots off of a basketball, (used everything known to mankind)... (I love old tractors, I love old tractors, I love old tractors) I want to do a good job on this one, but really dont want to tear it completly apart and spray each piece seperate like on the last resto. Whats a good way to prep the majority of the tractor (tin excluded) for painting? Or can I just degrease real good and prime and paint? Sandblasting?? I used a 2 part epoxy primer last time. Should I use that on the whole tractor again? Or should I try to use a primer closer to the color of the orig. IH primer? Last but not least, is the pit process still prep, fill, paint? Or has anyone come up with a better method lately? I posted on the paint and body side as well,I am just wondering how this half does it. Sorry for the wind. Thank You, scott#2

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.
