IH 350 All fuel

Can someone tell if IH made a 350 utility in an all fuel version? I remember my neighbor having one that would crank and run on gas then switch over to kerosene or diesel. It had a small starting fuel tank and a larger main tank if i remember right.
 
IH never made a gas to diesel engine for a 350. They did sell 350's with a Continental diesel engine but that was direct start on diesel.
 
Well That's one for they did and one for they didn't guess I still don't know for sure other than I do remember that the tractor in question did have a small tank and a main and I think it was a 350 Utility.
I think what Tobacco man said is more accurate it was a gas to distillate not diesel but to me distillate was kerosine or diesel fuel.

Any others have any input it would be greatly appreciated.

:)
 
I don't know if there were any made with kerosene or distillate engines in that particular model. But, that type of engine could be ordered until the 350 and 450 were replaced by the 460 and 560. Of those built, I have read the most were exported, but a few of whatever model were sold in the US.
 
IH didn't use the term all fuel. They made some distillate tractors in that model. Also list a kerosene head for the 350.
 
Thanks for the Information all. I wish I could find one like that as the one I was raised on has long ago gone the way of the scrapper.

Is there any books or info available from IH or other sources on what was available in this model?
 
Well, to the rest of the world gas is gas, diesel is diesel, kerosene is kerosene, and distillate is distillate. You can't use the terms interchangeably or there will be confusion.

The "all fuel" term is a John Deere invention meaning it would burn both kerosene or distillate and NOT DIESEL. Farmall specified whether it would burn kerosene or distillate. Either way, yes they made kerosene and distillate 350s. They also made a direct start diesel. It wouldn't burn anything but diesel.

I assure you I am [u:1fcb7f5b8e]confused [/u:1fcb7f5b8e]most of the time but as I remember we would use Kerosene and or Diesel as the fuel in the main tank and start and stop on Reg Grade Gas. It was always my understanding that the term distillate was used to define a range of fuels including Kerosene, Diesel, and mixtures of these.

I understand the Difference between a electrical based ignition engine and a compression based one and the tractor we had was electrical ignition. carb, and spark plugs.
 
Dad use to mix kerosene and diesel and put in the
main tank on my M all the time. I dont know why he
mixed them, but he did. Sometimes he would put 5
gallons of gas in there as well.You have to keep
it working hard to run it, and most of the time it
was. When youd stop for when nature called or eat
luch or for whatever reason, youd have to run
around and put a bag over the grill to keep it
hot, or it would die in about 10 minutes.(No
shutters, or at least they wouldnt close.)When we
went from the fields to the house, out came the
bag, or if it was close enough, switched to the
small tank.
 
Look back to page 6 of classic at the discussion heading that starts, what exactly is distillate fuel. Depending on how fast you look it could be to page 7 or more.
