Dad had a 1939 FARMALL H that was dual fuel from the factory, little gasoline tank on the right just ahead of the big fuel tank, radiator shutters, the tin cover over the intake & exhaust manifold. I'm not sure how we ended up with it, Dad bought a full gasoline H and 50T baler about 1945 and did custom baling for 6-7 years. Everything else he had was straight gasoline The '39 H was traded for a gasoline '54 Super H which is my #1. Snow mover.
The '39 H had the gasoline tank removed, the shutters and the cover over the manifolds and burned 100% leaded regular gas. The low compression head and pistons made cold weather starting kinda touchy. The Super H starts great, give it full choke about two revolutions and it catches and push the choke in and reduce the throttle setting.
The JD R diesel we had started terribly, normally a FARMALL M and a stout chain was needed, the SH would spin-out. The 1940 B John Deere started easier, but whatever the B could do the SH did better, faster, and on less gas.. The 4010 diesel was the same as the R, needed a FARMALL M to pull start
