Thanks to Andy Motteborg and Gene Bender for answerin' My first questions (earlier post) Gene sent Me His phone number, My call caught Him in the corm patch, I could tell We wern't on the same page concernin' this magneto....My books all say the mag is a H4, I picked up a hint an a clue from Gene, walked down to My shop, sure enough the mag on my 1943 A is nothin' like the mag on the old Mans A....I started lookin' thru My manuals, Manual for My 240U shows a wico mag that was on some 204s and 340s...This A M I drove down to the old fellows place......Magneto is a Wico Model X, Spec X H D 265. Talked it over with Him, left, half way home another light went off. At first I thought the shade tree people that had sold Him the tractor had replaced the H4 with the Wico, I drove back down, copied the castin' numbers off the block...I'm wonderin' if They replaced the A engine with a 240 engine. Here is the number behind the oil filter...6342*OH.....same side down close to oil pan at the front...5*22*0, last number the asterisk represent the screw heads in the numbers. Some of You that know Farmalls, can You identify what engine this is from these numbers...The old man doesn't have any money to spend on this tractor, if I have to buy a Magneto I want it to be the right one, If the H4 is wrong it has sure ran a bunch of years. Thanks for Yaw'ls help
