Great advice Red, and those are the exact results, reliability. 300 was a great tractor, in aproximately 20,000 hours I really only had one complaint. They were heavy drinkers compared to deisels in same hp class that followed them. They were the last or second last of the good gassers however. IH in its wisdom went to the non sleeved engine in gassers. Besides being rebuildable unfriendly, they didn't have torque of old 300 or 350. 300 would give a same hp diesel a run for it on performance. I remember taking my 300 to field one day along with a 504 gas I had just bought with a farm. One of these two tractors was being traded on a new 1066. 300 was several years from last rebuild 504 had just come from an engine rebuild. I hooked both to a 3x16 IH trailer plow. 300 clearly out lugged and out performed the 504. I kept 300, IH dealer got the 504.
