Seems like the 1850 gas we had, had no problem using 8-9 gallons an hour doing heavy work. Now take any of the diesels we use for heavy work, with much more power and inches, a 1066,1086,1486, and they seem to use around 6 gal an hour. Thats a tremendous difference when they are all over 100 CI bigger displacement, and they all run well over 100 HP. A 706 is a great tractor, they shift great, especially if you adjust things like they need to be, or replace things to compensate for the 50 years of wear they have. Easy fixes too. I always liked the shifter on the floor on the Olivers, it seems to stay out of your way just fine unless you are trying to climb off the platform with it in gear. No syncros to go bad in an Oliver or IH. Not that a T/A, O/U, or the JD syncros are hard to replace, they can be pricey for parts, especially if you need the JD shifting mechanism parts in the trans.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
