Was cleaning the parking spaces in my driveway last winter, had my grandfathers car nosed up to the road, and my cruiser back to back with his, so the front of my car was facing down the drive. I was backing up the drive, to take another pass across in front of the house, forgot totally there was cars behind me...I was just climbing onto the brakes when I 'felt' something. Slammed down the brakes, and turned in time to see the loaded, weighted and chained rear tire of my Super-C rolling up the pushbar on the front of the cruiser. Had enough weight on the pushbar that my grandfather, watching from the sidelines, said the bottom of the bumper guard was on the ground. Didnt deflect or damage the pushbar, only scratched the powdercoat. Had the pushbar not been there, I'd have been into repairs for at least a new headlight, bumper cover, grill, and hood...if not rad/rad support, etc. That pushbar paid for itself that day!

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). 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.
