New Project Model A

Posted by blakesimpson on March 30, 2006 at 18:34:42 from (206.148.176.59):

Me and my neighbor have a new project as of today. We pulled what I beleive to be a farmall model A tractor out of the woods and to his house today, and we would like to get it running if at all possible, but I am unfamilliar with this old of a tractor. The carburetor was laying on one of the rear wheels and it is all frozen up, so we have it soaking overnight in hopes that maybe it will free up. The first question I have is I see where the carb mounts on the bottom of the intake but why is there a hole on the top of the intake manifold and is there something that mounts there that is missing. Does the exhaust come out of what looks like the valve cover. It has a hole in the grill just below the radiator so I am assuming it is a manual start and was wondering what I could use to try and turn the engine over with to make sure it is not frozen up because we do not have the starting rod, I am familiar with the newer john deere tractors but I have no idea about this one, thanks for any help with the questions and i am sure that I will have more, I haven't been able to find any pictures on the internet of just the engine to see exactly what might be missing.
