I already took that challenge back in around 1990 or 1991 ? Purposely went looking for a 4020 gas tractor. Found a 1965 model hours showed 5400 ? and it is now at 6000 ? Doesn't get much use but have used it hard a few times. Has a 158 loader on it and a 115 blade. Perfect combo for snow removal and all around use loading and moving things around. didn't want a diesel because I might start it up and run it 15 min. tops sometimes just to load or move something. I still run points and standard 87 octane with 10% ethanol pump gas whatever they sell in Ohio ? Had a few issues with the off idle loading up like you had UNTIL I finally ditched that MS alum. carb. for a cast iron Zenith. Points are still the ones I put in back all those years ago. Spark plugs are autolite 388 and I changed them once but only because I ran it out of gas and then thought I got a bad batch and was not wanting to start. Ended up had a bad transfer pump. I can't begin to tell you how many different tractors I have had in and out of here repairing over the years that everyone else messed with and then they finally brought them to me to get straightened around. I do nothing fancy or use voodoo or anything like that. Just do the basics and go by the book.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
