I suggested the kit because he said it was leaking -- a later post indicated it was leaking at the gasket for the pipe mounting, and also at the "base of the unit"; the latter is probably the seals on the pistons. Although the piston seals can be replaced (with difficulty) with the unit on the tractor, it is much easier with it off. As long as it's off he may as well put a kit in it, instead of shortcutting something that will have to be fixed later. That, along with the proper adjustment of the levers that you mentioned, will vastly improve the performance of the unit, provided he doesn't have pump problems. I did that 3 years ago on my C, my Super A is badly in need of it. I will do it when I "restore" it, if I ever get to that particular tractor, unless it crashes first and makes me do it. Happens to be the one I use the most. Also the most junky looking, needs engine work also.
