Well George - Roger here sounded like a nice young man looking for some help with his Little Farmall A. I was just curious why he decided to get one when he had so little information about one. I agree with you "Why Not" but his wife/girlfriend must be a LOT more agreeable about Him spending money than mine! I grew up on a farm and I have the Super H I ran as a kid home in the garage on my 2+ acres. Dad saved it for me. Roger evidently bought His A for a different reason or reasons, and I was curious as to what they were. It wasn't because He ran one as a kid. Maybe his grandfather had one, or an uncle. I was just curious. It takes a lot of time, room and "Other Resources" to fix one of these old tractors up and keep it running. And You have to use them some or they deteriorate faster than if they're used. I was just curious why a young man would spend the cash for some old iron when there are so many other things to get involved in from sports to collector's cars to racing to motorcycles. He evidently had a different style of childhood than You & I did. And I WAS CURIOUS. Aren't You George? You've read all the stories in RED POWER about Son tracking down Dad's Old 300/H/M/A/CUB/B/C You name it. I was hoping Roger would let us know his. I know there are people who get these tractors given to them that need info. too. But they have stories too.

Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. 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.
