I could possibly take the original springs to the distributor, but when they are rusted in half or stretched halfway out, its hard to tell what it originally was. Plus, I have a "bucket of random springs" in the shop; many of which are close to the size of what came on the tractors. In my expierence, if the correct spring (or close to it) isn't used, the actual function it was intented to be used for will not work correctly with the "wrong" spring.
As far as bolts....when putting a tractor together that didn't have the bolts in the first place (either missing or I burnt them out with a torch), I would like to be able to look up on the parts catalouge (or somewhere else) to see what the original specs called for. Also, over the years, the bolts/fasteners may have been replaced with something different or incorrect to "get them by", and I would like to replace with what is needed. It would be nice if I had a source to go to that listed each bolt/fasterner for the tractor so I would know exactly what size, thread, & length to put back. Thanks for all the replys.

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.
