Hi Matt. Just a little A story for you. When I bought our A we completely overhauled it including new 3-1/8" sleeves and pistons. (Pictures posted last winter in Parts & Pieces) For most things the A worked great until we used it on the disk in new plowing. It got so hot that it wouldn't hardly run. Always having to add antifreeze was another problem. Finley I got a water pump from a Super C and put it on the A and what a DEFFERENCE that made. Now it never gets hot no matter how hard we work it and don't have to add antifreeze any more. Because the M&W hand clutch went out on my MD we baled with the A last Friday with a wagon behind and over 100 bales on the wagon. Going up a hill in our field we had to steer with the brakes on the last round but that A just kept on baling and digging. Never heated! I have a lot of respect for that A now. I will post a picture in the tractor photos. ADD A WATEER PUMP if your going to use your A for heavy loads. It's worth every penny you pay for the pump and good luck with your A Matt.
