Was just heading out the driveway with my IH2424 one day when I smelled electic fire. Looked down and wires were sparking under the steering wheel, right by the gas tank. Gave them a big swipe with my hand and pulled them out, which stopped the fire. Got a bit of a burn on my hand, but that was all. Never fixed the wires up.
Same tractor, a month ago - went out to put on the plow one night before a storm. As I was hooking up the plow I could smell something stinky, figure it was bird poop on the muffler. When I pulled it back into the shed and turned it off, suddenly white smoke everywhere. When I started it and backed it out of the shed, the fan pushed the fire everywhere.

But if I had not looked back and noticed the smoke, I might have lost my shed, two year's firewood, and my garden tractor also.

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.
