Best reply, The rust could be from a leaking valve core that has been repaired and now not leaking. But best would be have tires pumped out, be sure to save the CaCi to put back in, you will need it. Then remove the tires and check tubes very well and possibly repair or replace, clean any rust off and use a rust converter, then paint and then remount being sure the tubes are in good condition if the old ones or new ones. And use after putting that CaCi back in . You need the weight if you are going to do anything heavy with the tractor. And that 3 cylinder is a good engine, only thing that for me would be a deal breaker if it had the jerk-a-matic S O S transmission. I had a 65 4000 and a 68 4000, both the 3 cylinder engines. They were the 4100 models that means they had 38 rear wheels with 13-6x38 rear tires and both were loaded and cast weights as well. One had a loader and in winter put changes on it and would still spin the tires in snow so you do need all the weight you can get and CaCi is the best as long as you keep an eye on the valve stems to spot a possible leak imideatly and fix it instead of letting it go. That is the reason tractors have to get rims replaced is because of neglect. And that valve stem is easy to keep an eye o on the ones with 38 rubber, the 28 are harder to see the stem because of less clearance. Tractor is rated at 52 PTO HP and one when we got it needed engine rebuilt and dealer did that as part of the deal. The machine shop messed up the rebore first time and had to rebore it a second time do that gave a bit mpre power and it tested on dydo at 60 HP. We pulled a 3-16 plow with it and a 3-14 with the other and a 12 foot disk or field cultivator. We had duals for field work on both. Lost the farm due to medical bills or I would still be using both tractors. Bought first in 1980 and second in 1984.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
