Pedder2 I see now that I read the serial number list cross eyed. That machine would be a 1980. The year is not encoded in the serial number but rather is done by a list of starting numbers for each tear. The 240A was only built in 1978,79,and 1980. 1978 serial numbers started at #100001, 1979 started at #100279 and 1980 started at #100709. The actual serial number is the number after the "B" in the complete identification number. Depending on where you are located, the 484 should be quite common. The Hydro 84 is not as common althogh not really rare. The problem with a hydro is they are VERY,VERY expensive to fix if you have a major internal problem.The Hydro 84 uses hand controls and the foot control system was only on the industrials.My understanding is that IH dropped the industrial wheel division about 1980 and then shortly after that sold the crwaler and construction division to Dresser. Most parts you might need should be available from a CaseIH dealer but you need a partsman that can and will take the time to understand the 240A in relation to the Agricultural models from that era and then match it up for you.

And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
