I believe there are a few cases where you can use a smaller wire size such as free air or possibly underground. Knob and tube may have been rated differently too but dont quote me on these.
In a few cases I have used larger wire than I needed because that is what I had in the van or for voltage drop. In these cases it was tied into a smaller wire down the line. I put labels on the wire near the breaker hoping that if it does trip the person working on it wont put a larger breaker on it. At the time I dont think anything in he code book said it had to be labeled? If any of you are ever in a panel upsizing a breaker because of wire size better make good and well the wire stays the same size through out. Tap rules also come into play here. If the wires are under a certain length the can be smaller.

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.
